German Digital Bank Selects Nasdaq AxiomSL for Local and Regional Regulatory Reporting
One of Europe’s newest digibanks leverages the Nasdaq AxiomSL® capital, liquidity, and regulatory reporting solutions for growth
Compelling Event and Decision Drivers
Online banking has created a growth opportunity for digital banks, globally. Whether they are start-ups, or a groundbreaking service for a non-bank financial institution, these offshoots must quickly contend with unfamiliar regulatory requirements. Regulatory exams often challenge the integrity, controls, and governance of digital banks’ data flows and systems more than they do traditional banks. This heightened scrutiny requires digibanks to have processes that meet expectations for accuracy and transparency, thereby sending a message of professionalism to auditors, regulators, and the market.
With an expansion underway, this digital bank had to comply with stringent local regulatory reporting as well as regional requirements. Furthermore, given its growing customer base and increasing trading volumes, the bank needed a solution that offered enhanced processing efficiency and scalability.
The client was looking for a complete solution to cover its local financial/statistical, capital, and liquidity calculation regulatory requirements and a path toward its pan-European expansion, simultaneously futureproofing its reporting needs in an ever-changing regulatory landscape.
