How is your data quality?

Reports and analytics are only as good as the data they receive. If data quality is low, reconciliation takes a lot of effort. Data quality problems can be easy to detect but tough to resolve.

    At First Rate, we know manual data reconciliation is a challenge. It can be automated, but most firms don’t want to rely solely on an algorithm to reconcile their data.

    We developed a recon system that uses a pre-trained engine with a human in the loop. Our engine, ArtIE, pulls data from custodians, data providers, databases, and even unstructured data sources. A real person reviews and resolves data exceptions, so the engine continuously improves.

    The result is an automated, monitored recon process that cleanses your data before you use it for any calculations. We’re proud of it, and we think you will be, too.

    Use Cases

    The most important piece of the financial aggregation process is to source, extract, and validate all data fields before sending them into downstream systems. From there, reporting, insights, and further innovation is possible.

    Asset Management

    Relationship Type: Direct

    Challenge: The firm has a very manual and time-consuming process to consume and validate alternative investment information from the bank’s internal oversight and external fund managers. Quarterly documents can exceed 25,000.

    Outcome: Data Services is automating the statement-gathering process monthly, reconciling these documents, and providing the client with a back-office dashboard for review before going into downstream investment systems.

    Family Office

    Relationship Type: Direct

    Challenge: The FO can’t trust the data they are receiving as part of an all-in-one solution. There are numerous errors in the data normalization and reconciliation process, making downstream analysis and insight impossible without manual intervention.

    Outcome: Data Services sources, validates, and reconciles all data fields in order to provide an extract into downstream systems—99.8% error-free automation process with a  human in the loop providing oversight.

    Capital Management

    Relationship Type: Direct

    Challenge: The firm is unable to provide timely performance and reporting capabilities to their entire book of business because of disparate technology solutions.

    Outcome: Data Services provides 20 e-feeds direct to custodians, pulls all account information, handles daily calculations according to client specifications, and normalizes all data files in to specific outputs for consumption into their IBOR. The firm now utilities one system, not three.
