Temenos has more than 10 customers in Pakistan including NIB Bank, Soneri Bank, Allied Bank, Meezan Bank, Bank Alfalah and JS Bank. IBM middleware has also been incorporated in the system for the integration of front and back office systems. IBM’s DB2, a relational database management system, is being used in this regard.
