Calculating performance indicators or Risk metrics is a critical task for Financial Institutions. While many focus solely on calculation methods, the real challenge often lies elsewhere. Surprisingly, Data Quality is the number one factor that impacts the accuracy of results. Poor Data Quality leads to false conclusions and reduced operational efficiency. So, while robust calculation methods are vital, the foundation of accurate, scalable, and auditable Data is essential.
Why Data Quality is the Foundation of Performance and Risk Calculations
Accurate Data is the backbone of every financial calculation. Without it, even the most advanced formulas can deliver skewed results. This makes an effective Performance Book of Record (PBOR) crucial to ensure accurate performance and Risk measurements. It needs to be built not only on sophisticated calculation engines but also on high-quality Data.
NeoXam’s Investment Data Solution (IDS) is designed to ensure that your performance and Risk calculations are not only accurate but also efficient. It provides a comprehensive Data Management solution that guarantees both Data Quality and operational efficiency. Here’s what makes it stand out:
Data Quality Controls at Every Stage
One of the biggest challenges in performance calculation is ensuring that the Data fed into the system is accurate. With NeoXam IDS, Data Quality checks are embedded at every level of the process. These controls help catch Data errors early on, ensuring that false Data doesn’t propagate through your system and skew performance or Risk metrics.
Exception Monitoring and Advanced Resolution Workflows
Errors and exceptions are inevitable, but how quickly and effectively you resolve them makes all the difference. NeoXam IDS offers real-time exception monitoring to flag issues as they arise. Coupled with advanced resolution workflows, NeoXam IDS ensures that Data discrepancies are handled swiftly and do not impact your daily operations.
Transparent Calculation Lineage and Parameter Change Detection
Understanding how results are calculated is crucial for both internal validation and external audits. The IDS system provides a transparent view of the entire calculation lineage, so users can trace the Data flow and see how each performance or Risk metric is derived. Additionally, the solution automatically tracks and detects any parameter changes used in calculations, ensuring consistency.
Multi-Source Data Integration
Managing Data from multiple sources can be complex, but it’s essential for comprehensive performance and Risk calculations. IDS excels in multi-source Data integration, bringing together Data from various systems into a unified platform. This ensures that your calculations reflect all the necessary inputs, without delays or inconsistencies.
Scalable, Auditable Calculation Processes
As financial institutions grow, so do their Data needs. NeoXam IDS is designed to scale with your organization, ensuring that it can handle increasing Data volumes while maintaining accuracy. More importantly, the solution offers fully auditable calculation processes, allowing you to trace and verify every step in the Data pipeline—ensuring transparency for regulatory compliance and internal audits.
How NeoXam IDS Improves Operational Efficiency
Beyond Data Quality and accuracy, NeoXam IDS is designed to enhance your entire performance chain. By automating Data Management processes and ensuring real-time monitoring, this solution significantly improves operational efficiency, allowing financial institutions to:
- Reduce manual interventions
- Minimize operational risks
- Increase data transparency.
