Case study
Onboarding complex funds made simple
How a leading bank turned its onboarding of complex funds from a costly overhead to a business growth opportunity.

The situation
Accessing and reconciling the right data
The bank's desire to grow its fund business was hampered by a complex onboarding process for new funds. This process required specialist skills and used internally developed tools based on Excel and was unique for each new fund.
It needed a repeatable best practice that could be used to standardize its onboarding process.

Onboarding funds required reworking the previous administrator’s data, relying on Excel formulas, v-lookups and mappings.
There were high levels of keying errors because of the amount of manual intervention.
A strong reliance on specialists and contractors to get them through the onboarding process.

High cost to run and maintain each process, which was a sunk cost each time.
