Misys Strengthens its Transaction Banking Offering for North America

LONDON, March 8, 2011 - Misys plc (LSE: MSY.L), the global application software and
services company, today announces that it has made a significant acquisition
to enhance its Transaction Banking offering in the United States. The deal
with Gandacar Consulting Limited (GCL) includes the intellectual property,
software and expertise behind the ST-Pymnts, TradeWatch, OFAC and FinCEN
products. This deal is a key enabler in the company's strategic vision for
its business in this important market.

Misys had previously integrated the GCL solutions within its
offering and currently has 15 customers benefiting from the partnership in
the United States. Acquiring and fully integrating the software and IP into
the Misys strategic offerings and roadmaps will provide a great opportunity
for banks looking to improve their global footprint.

GCL's experience of US domestic payments, including FED and
CHIPS (the Federal Reserve's Fedwire funds transfer service and the Clearing
House Interbank Payment Systems) complements Misys' deep global knowledge of
payments hubs and connectivity to SWIFT. GCL's US-centric payments engine
will be combined with existing Misys international payments capabilities so
that not only will US-based banks now have an easier path to international
expansion but also non-US banks can add US connectivity to their
international payments processes.

"We are extremely pleased to be able to bring these capabilities under a
single roof and enable Misys to offer more comprehensive transaction banking
and payment solutions to our customers as part of our portfolio," states Amar
Naher, Regional Sales Director Banking, North America, Misys. "We have
significant experience in both international and domestic payments services
and technology and this will help to further enhance those offerings. We now
have a US payments engine over which we have total control for all our core
systems available for North American banks, paving the way for our
transaction banking solutions to penetrate the US market further."

Completed on 1 March 2011, the deal significantly opens up the
US market to Misys, which now has a broader front-to-back solution for the
transaction banking market there with certified connections to FED and CHIPS.
