The Financial Services Challenge

In regulated industries, change must happen without compromising compliance or stability. Leaders face competing priorities: innovate at pace, manage risk and maintain full regulatory oversight.
 
What financial services leaders tell us:

Programmes lack visibility across business units and regulatory boundaries
Manual reporting increases risk and slows executive decision-making
Change portfolios struggle to align with governance and audit frameworks
Teams need clear, auditable data to demonstrate ROI and risk mitigation
Risk and compliance teams operate in silos from transformation teams

Insurance and re-insurance firms

What we are seeing in insurance and re-insurance firms:

Regulatory compliance programmes are drowning financial service firms
Digital transformation programmes overrun by 12-24 months and are 40-60% over budget
Underwriting modernisation and claims transformation run as separate programmes
Companies are running on 30-40 year old policy administration systems
Audit trails are fragmented across Excel, Powerpoint and emails
