8 Current Reconciliation Challenges Data: Getting the data: print reports, s, screen shots Accessing different applications for the data Matching: Labor intensive, time-consuming, manual effort Time spent on what matched Inconsistent matching across staff: thresholds/ data elements

9 Current Reconciliation Challenges Exceptions: Rekeying exceptions into a spreadsheet Manually posting correcting entries into another application Signoff: Verification of completion of reconciliation submission - printing Verification of sign off

13 Customer Audit Example - $6 billion bank 2 people visit 11 affiliate locations twice a year Reconciliation audits take 3 weeks each 3 weeks * 2 people * 2 times per year = 12 weeks in total Let s do the math (conservatively) Assuming $150k in total compensation between the 2 employees and 25% of their time on this task (about right after vacations, etc) Cost of reconciliation audits = $37,500 per year
