Target Operating Model Definition for a Tier 1 Bank
Value Added Subsequently we defined the target operating model (and associated business case) and outlined recommendations for the implementation strategy and roadmap.
The type of work we do – Case Study
Context Our client had launched a securities processing initiative to review and consider synergies in the way securities are processed across the group. Within that initiative, it was identified that the Nostro management function was a service performed across four business lines and one that could potentially offer business, organizational and technology synergies.
Expertise Applied Our role was to conduct a review of the Nostro management function across the investment bank, private bank, asset management and security services business lines to understand the current operating model.
We are seen as part of the Financial Services Industry, not as a vendor to it — Our industry focus, small team size and collaborative culture allows us to be considered a trusted advisor to our clients not a vendor
