"We've selected AxiomSL's solution not only for their impressive track record, extensive knowledge and hands on experience with data management but most importantly for their ability to deliver in a timely fashion the flexibility required to face the increasing complexity of UK regulatory requirements."

"The objectives of delivering a single and uniform reporting platform are to achieve higher scalability, traceability and comparability of data while reducing operational costs faced by ICBC (London) in dealing with diverging reporting frameworks" says Patrice Melloul, AxiomSL's EMEA Managing Director. "AxiomSL's comprehensive data warehouse has the ability to compute Basel capital adequacy calculations at various levels of granularity and from multiple sources, improving ICBC's financial data management between London and its parent bank in China while meeting regulatory requirements and financial control reporting."
