What are the top 3 key benefits your solution will bring to the Asset Management Industry?

Faster Data-to-Action: Asset managers can gain a competitive advantage as rich insights can be drawn more quickly and accurately, enabling decisions to be made faster than ever before.

Operational efficiency: Document automation significantly reduces labour and system costs across front-, middle- and back-office operations. Properly ingested and structured data can be reused at a much lower cost to improve or develop new products and services.

Better compliance: Fewer errors, larger data coverage and faster turnaround times help asset managers uncover hidden risks and avoid contravening internal and external regulations.

Do you have any case studies of your solution? If yes, please share it in less than 200 words

A UK-based global bank implemented Nexus IDP to achieve greater compliance and cut its compliance processing time by 80%. Before Nexus, manual processing meant the team of 120 reviewers could only check 10-15% of completed sales. The process was slow and painful, with each reviewer having to look across more than 10 different data sources and 180 data points to complete their tasks. With Nexus IDP ingesting required data much faster and more accurately than before, the bank can now review 100% of cases with close to 100% accuracy, eliminate case backlogs and move checks close to real-time.
