- The challenge
- Wealth management organizations work with information distributed across banks, custodians, investment managers and alternative investment providers. Data arrives through feeds, statements, spreadsheets and documents. Bringing it together requires consistent collection, transformation, validation and exception handling before it can support portfolio reporting and investment analysis.
- The data approach
- PCR combines technology and data operations to collect, normalize, validate and reconcile investment information. Structured workflows prepare consistent datasets for downstream reporting and analytics, while specialist review helps resolve incomplete records and processing exceptions.
Financial data workflows
- Requirements analysis: understand financial data sources, business rules and downstream reporting needs.
- Data aggregation: collect investment information from supported feeds, financial institutions and approved document sources.
- Integration: connect source interfaces, internal services and downstream financial applications.
- Transformation and processing: standardize different formats, fields and financial structures into consistent datasets.
- Validation: check completeness, consistency and expected business rules before publishing information.
- Reconciliation: compare records and investigate missing information, duplicates, mismatched values and exceptions.
- Operational support: coordinate recurring processing, troubleshooting and changes to source systems.
- Continuous improvement: adapt workflows to evolving requirements, integration interfaces and operational feedback.
