Challenges for Today's Banker

Banks nowadays rely on traditional accounting systems, however traditional systems cannot deliver intelligence about business processes, cost flows and cost drivers​.  They are also lacking fact based data and even though they may understand that  operational costs are too high in a particular area they are unable to analyze those processes across their business or industry.  Traditional cost systems cannot allocate nonstandard costs, to a specific customer, product or service that are driving these costs. It’s also hard to determine which customers, products, channels and services are driving the greatest value for your company.
