Banking, Finance & Investment

• New Business and its challenges

Financial institutions have to cope with large volumes of applications and transactions on a daily basis especially when they operate within the retail environment. Backrooms of these institutions often have to deal with surges and troughs in volumes whilst at the same time deliver consistent quality and service levels to meet both the enterprise and customer expectations.

• Business Records Retention and Retrieval

  o Voluminous records (especially for banks) are often stored for a long duration of time to comply with regulatory guidelines such as the Companies Act.

  o Records management and retention is paper-based and not advanced.

  o Banks often store massive amounts of information in physical warehouses, which ultimately snowballs into a records retrieval nightmare.

  o Besides backup of system data, banks business continuity plans (BCP) do not fully address the risk of physical vital records loss.

  o Changing customer expectations, competition, geo-political, audit and legislative landscape has made many of these institutions review existing records management strategies.
