GENEVA, SWITZERLAND and HANGZHOU, CHINA -�Media
OutReach�-�17 September 2020�- Temenos (SIX: TEMN), the banking
software company, and Alibaba Cloud, the digital technology and intelligence
backbone of Alibaba Group, today announced that Temenos Transact, its next
generation core banking product is now certified on Alibaba Cloud. Financial
institutions will be able to run Temenos' mission-critical core banking
applications on Alibaba Cloud and benefit from elastic scalability, cost and
operational efficiencies. Banks can now easily adopt Temenos' world-leading
banking software on the powerful Alibaba Cloud infrastructure.

More than 3,000 financial services institutions around the world
leverage Temenos' modern, cloud-native and API-first technology. Banks can now
run Temenos' core banking software in Alibaba Cloud and take advantage of the
speed to market and agility of the cloud, enabling them to quickly reinvent
their business models and their organization as a whole.

The growing demand for cloud-based and SaaS models is being accelerated
by the coronavirus pandemic as banks require more resilient and agile
technology propositions. Cloud has become the established method of software
deployment for smaller banks and neobanks that need to launch quickly with
minimal IT infrastructure cost. However, incumbent banks increasingly require
cloud-native software to future-proof their business, gain greater speed to
market as well as reduce IT complexity and costs.

Temenos' core banking software will now be available on Alibaba Cloud,
and the two companies will jointly help banks go to market faster, open up new
business models, and achieve industry leading cost/income ratios. The two
companies are already engaged in proof of concepts with banks and have joint
customers in APAC.

Philip
Barnett, Director, Strategic Growth, Temenos, said: "We are delighted to extend our
leadership in the cloud and be the first to certify with Alibaba Cloud, a tech
giant and a source of innovation widely recognized for its leadership in
e-commerce and mobile payments. Cloud is the enabler for change; and
particularly during this challenging climate - it gives financial institutions
the agility and the resilience they need. Working with Alibaba Cloud we will
help banks to elastically scale based on demand and remove operational
complexities. Together we can help new entrants launch faster with lower costs
as well as large banks break down silos and collaborate internally and
externally, and provide outstanding customer experiences. Our certification on Alibaba
Cloud demonstrates that our cloud-agnostic banking platform enables banks to
pursue a multi-cloud strategy and have the highest levels of active-active
resilience with the cloud provider of their choice."

Lancelot Guo, President of Ecosystem
and Sales Operations, Alibaba Cloud Intelligence: "We are delighted that Temenos has
certified on our cloud. Temenos is the market-leading, cloud-native banking
software provider accelerating the digital transformation for thousands of
worldwide financial institutions. Combined with our comprehensive suite of
cloud services, and a proven track record of delivering value, we together
boost the capabilities of financial institutions, allowing them to accelerate
their growth and innovation on the cloud."

Temenos has been in the forefront of
software innovation, consistently investing 20% of its revenues in R&D and
is pioneering in cloud banking for the last 10 years. Temenos was the first
banking software provider to offer a core banking product in the cloud and the
