Summary
Early Warning System (EWS) implementation is an integral part of RBI and DFS mandates. The mandates require banks to monitor and report suspicious activities in accounts with exposure above ₹50 crore. The bank sought to comply with these mandates, while curbing further rise in non-performing assets (NPAs) and credit frauds. It also wanted to improve its focus on high-profile customers and high-growth industry sectors. Together with BCT Digital, it fast-tracked the deployment of rt360 Early Warning System (EWS) within its premises, leading to outstanding results.
The challenge:
-
Data availability, extraction, multi-source aggregation, and extensive analysis are crucial for EWS efficiency. Hence, data quality was a priority.
-
EWS required seamless integration with the core banking and legacy systems and external databases.
-
CRM data collation and reporting were time-consuming and manual tasks, which could take up to six months.
-
Monitoring and resolving EWS alerts on time, right from the branch level to the corporate office, was of prime importance.
Transformation:
rt360 EWS provides early warning signals to authorities as per pre-defined criteria and threshold limits. It uses complex algorithms, statistical techniques, and advanced technologies, like predictive analytics, to generate composite risk scores and measure the probability of risk. The application, built on modular architecture, is user-friendly, automated, scalable and secure
