lending

meets both the technical and business needs of this environment. Open technology allows easy integration to other third party applications and the ILS also enables aggressive business strategies so that you can secure new opportunities.


The ILS administers a wide range of loan structures secured against most collateral classes, including personal loans, group scheme loans, development finance, home loans, industrial and commercial finance, structured finance, securitisation, motor vehicle and other moveable asset finance. 


First commissioned in 1993 by a leading South African bank the ILS deals in commercial, industrial and structured finance banking to replace their existing lending systems. The result was a solution that provided such enhanced capabilities that the bank started using the system in other divisions to administer and manage corporate loans. Instead of the generic, international system they had been using, the bank found that the ILS could meet their individual, changing needs. 

Today the ILS has more than two decades of additional experience and system enhancement, offering new levels of operational efficiency. By utilising the latest technologies and staying on top of the ever-changing business and regulatory requirements, it remains the system of choice of leading financial institutions.
