Corporate actions solution from IBM

Executive summary Business view Technical details
The goal
Simplify financial management
Takeovers and mergers, spin-offs or disposals, liquidations, name changes, litigation proceedings—all corporate level events which require processing. But manual processing is labor intensive, time consuming and open to error. Missing data, unreconciled positions and untimely processing can all lead to significant financial losses and leave an institution’s reputation open to risk.

The advantage
The value of automation
The corporate actions solution from IBM provides automation across the corporate actions life cycle. From data capture, data scrubbing, data normalization, and the creation of a single “golden” record through the internal decision making process, to the ultimate settlement of the transaction, our solution can help mitigate the financial risks involved when these processes are manual and labor intensive.
