Challenges

How many financial institutions have been left at a loss when regulatory standards such as anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism (AML/CFT) were introduced? Many marketing campaigns are still directed at off-target customers even though institutions have the relevant information in their systems.

Data quality is at the heart of the performance of financial institutions and brokers (process reliability, customer knowledge, responsiveness, steering relevance...): federating and leveraging this strategic, cross-functional data has become a major challenge.

To meet this challenge, Willis Towers Watson called on Micropole as part of a progressive Master Data Management (MDM) deployment project on its customer and third-party repositories with a use case for Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance.

Imposed by European anti-money laundering and counter-terrorism financing (AML/CFT) regulations, it allows to certify and qualify a client in order to protect against fraud and other related damages. Today, most of this work is done manually, which represents a disproportionate amount of work given the volume of information to be verified daily. By combining a customer repository and MDM tool, Willis Towers Watson ensures that data quality is optimized by verifying information and detecting inconsistencies upstream.

MDM ensures data uniqueness and traceability, which allows players like Willis Towers Watson to ensure the control of authorities over their databases and to meet regulatory requirements.

Methods and Solutions

During these five and a half months, Willis Towers Watson relied on Micropole and its partner Informatica, which used three modules to carry out this project: MDM Hub, data quality tools and a project gas pedal: Customer 360.
