      Is your data architecture capable of providing up-to-date and quality-assured data for the targeted management of your bank?

      It would be better, because: Risk controlling, reporting, accounting and controlling as central elements of bank management always require the latest, complete data that can be evaluated in various dimensions - this is the only way to sustainably optimise income and cost management as well as performance measurement, management and control and to monitor compliance with regulatory requirements.

      Enormous challenge in interpretation and realisation

      With the principles for the effective aggregation of risk data and risk reporting (BCBS 239), the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has significantly tightened the regulatory requirements for data management and risk reporting systems. Even five years after their publication, the BCBS 239 requirements continue to pose an enormous challenge for many institutions in terms of interpretation and implementation.

      In addition to the growing regulatory requirements, increasing reporting obligations to the supervisory authorities can be observed. The traditional reporting forms have been extensively expanded in recent years and supplemented by new regulatory reporting requirements such as AnaCredit.


      Our expertise - your success

      Many financial institutions have already done significant preparatory work by implementing the BCBS 239 requirements. On this basis, taking into account the requirements of all other bank management disciplines, future-proof data architectures can be set up for more efficient overall bank management and irreversible costs can be prevented.

      We support you in the implementation with holistic solutions, e.g. through

      • Creating transparency across your existing data processing routes
      • defining an optimal target architecture based on your existing infrastructure or by selecting suitable solutions
      • Efficient design of production routes for data aggregation processes
      • technical definition of data requirements and production routes
      • Harmonisation of data
      • Production of data quality

      As the market leader, KPMG supports numerous national banks and has in-depth technical expertise in all bank management disciplines, comprehensive technical implementation know-how and the regulatory expertise to ensure compliance and realise the opportunities arising from BCBS 239 for your bank.
