Build vs Buy — Financial Services
Weigh SaaS subscriptions against a custom build for Financial Services — see the multi-year total cost of ownership and which path wins.
What this means for Financial Services
- KYC, AML, and onboarding still take days because data is duplicated across CRM, core banking, and compliance systems.
- Master data is a mess — the same client exists three times under slightly different names across LOBs.
- Regulatory reporting consumes weeks of analyst time per quarter and still ships with errors.
Where it pays to act
- Document understanding for loan applications, claims, contracts, and KYC files.
- AI-assisted financial spreading and credit memo drafting in commercial lending.
