Client story
Managing data from multiple sources
How a leading investment bank eliminated keying errors, reduced costs and established an audit trail to effectively manage its data.
Situation
Manually intensive data collection
Back and middle office processes involve dealing with data from hundreds of brokers and vendors.
Handling a high volume of incoming data, using multiple channels and formats, caused administrative problems.
Pain points
Managing brokers and vendors involves constantly reviewing emails, keying data into Excel, and loading it into upstream systems.
Errors and operational risk resulted from rekeying multiple data formats.
Between 10 and 15 staff were employed to upload data, impacting profit and scalability.
