Client Introduction
A well-known US-based super-regional bank that offers retail and commercial banking services, wealth and asset management, investment solutions, and more.
Problem Statement
The bank faced challenges with business intelligence and reporting for its lockbox services, hampering operational effectiveness and decision-making.

- A dedicated MIS resource was necessary to create the report daily.
Solution Offered

The project completely transformed the reporting capability with a cloud-based and real-time Power BI® dashboard.
