Business Challenge
The existing customer onboarding for institutional markets was being done manually consuming few hours per FTE with no system integrations in place for a sequential process of task execution. The various forms used to capture customer information and product recommendations were not quite accurate leading to errors and omissions on the side of client transition services, client transition managers and quality assurance teams.
