Why Is an OBU Multilateral Trade Processing System Needed?

To support global expansion, comply with regulatory requirements, and manage multi-entity organizational structures across regions, multilateral trade processes have become increasingly complex and diversified, making intercompany transaction processing among group subsidiaries more challenging. Under this trade model, what challenges do multinational enterprises face, and why is an OBU multilateral trade processing system required?

Accounting processing at each corporate level
