What is a BAI2 file?

BAI2 files mostly belong to Kyriba. BAI2 files are bank account statement files that carry detailed information on bank transactions.
They follow a strict, text-based structure designed for financial data exchange.
Usage and Features:

Structured Records: Headers, transaction details, and trailers are marked in the file.

Bank Activity Information: They list data such as opening balances, individual transactions, and closing balances.

Automation: Many financial systems import these files for account reconciliation and cash management.

This format is used by banks and treasury applications like Kyriba to send account statements reliably.
