Client Lifecycle Management and “Know Your Customer”

The Client
A major European bank.

The Challenge
The bank wished to design and implement a strategic, scalable, flexible client lifecycle management application that would be able to support the customer assessment and segmentation requirements of its Know Your Customer and MiFID programmes as part of its Compliance framework.

The Approach
Lysis provided a project manager and design authority whose role was to:
Understand the Know Your Client and MiFID regulations and lead all core design decisions.
Ensure agreement on scope and design with the business to support initially 500 users in its wholesale clients operations and scalable to support 10,000 users and extendable to the other business units such as asset management and private clients globally.
Ensure that client risk assessment and client segmentation algorithms were compliant with the regulations and the bank's internal objectives and that they were correctly implemented via an intelligent customer assessment form.
Manage the development of the platform using Java, Websphere, Oracle and a number of complementary Open Source web technologies using industry standard methods.
Management of the offshore solution vendor.

The Outcome
The bank has successfully deployed a global solution which meets the initial requirement for customer risk assessment and segmentation for its wholesale customers. This is recognized as a robust and highly scalable platform which is now being extended for further rollout to numerous business users.

The solution fully supports the bank's strategy of decommissioning a number of localized and tactical tools, providing a return on investment in terms of saved licence and support costs.

The solution has supported the globalization and rationalization of business processes, leading to cost savings in the operational areas.
