The Challenge
Client Overview
Our client is a 300+ year-old financial institution and a global leader positively impacting the financial community – be it in trading and banking, investment, wealth, customer and third-party risk, and Enterprise Data solutions.

The Ask
For the market expansion of their Index Business, the client initiated their proprietary flagship data programme using market leading data products. The primary objective of the programme was to deliver a single service for ingestion of the market data from both internal and external providers, mastering reference data, and applying and managing quality rules across the resulting data set to then make available by other parts of the Index business.
Our Process
Assessment & Capability Mapping
Our first step was understanding their current platform capabilities and data management solutions through a workshop and discussions. We understood the current challenges across onboarding each data feed i.e. ingestion, quality management and mastering, and the impact on their delivery timeline.
Pilot & SAP Lab Validation
Using our iGen43 Digital SAP lab, we conducted a number of pilot use cases and proposed the addition of the market leading SAP data management solution (SAP Data Intelligence) to their current platform.
Scale & Streamline
Subsequently we replicated the pilot uses cases within the client landscape, introduced new architecture capabilities and streamlined the delivery of onboarding complex data feeds through reusable patterns and components for data ingestion, quality management and mastering. Our expert team included Fintech Enterprise, Solution and Technical Architects, Data Analysts and Data Engineers spread across UK and India.
