A global payments solution,
built for volume.
The more variable-rate debt a company has, the less control it has over the impact interest rate fluctuations can have on its costs, cash flow and profitability. Our interest rate risk management solutions enable companies to fix their interest rates over a period of time to provide greater certainty, predictability and protection.
With significant ongoing investment in technology and dedicated global payments expertise, we help finance teams significantly reduce the time and cost of processing payments, whilst enhancing the level of control and visibility they have throughout the process. Our payments business has been built specifically to support companies with large volumes of payments and we work with clients across a range of industries – from leading global payroll providers, to some of the world’s largest media companies.
By combining cutting-edge technology with a global banking network built up over two decades, we provide our clients with the scale and security of an established global player, alongside the innovation and agility of a disruptive fintech. It’s the best of both worlds.

Both David

and Goliath.
When the time comes to execute your strategy, we will use our strong cash position and wholesale buying power to optimise the collateral and pricing on your hedges. We can provide facilities in under 48hrs, and are also able to execute under long-form confirmations (LFC) or ISDA agreements upon request.
Our execution services are focused on improving cash flows whilst reducing costs. Indeed, we work with a number of clients who do not require our strategic consultancy, but still choose us based on the flexibility and competitiveness of our facilities alone.
Both human

and digital.
In a drive to increase volume whilst reducing costs, many payment providers have replaced human involvement with self-service offerings. Whilst this may work for consumers and small businesses, for larger companies it can mean significant friction remains that could in fact be removed.
At Alpha, a seamless online experience is also supported by an experienced and proactive team of payments experts – people who understand payment processing and global banking inside-out. This enables us to carry out tasks for you that can’t be done with technology alone, but also means you’ll always have someone proactive and knowledgeable on hand to help when you need them.
