The context & issues

A major European bank was considering outsourcing a loan portfolio to issue to local authorities around the world, as well as to a partner institution. The aim was to migrate the portfolio, worth several tens of billions of euros, into the partner institution's IS, entrusting them with back-office management of the loans. Our clients’ accounting and regulatory systems must also be fed back into the process so that they could continue to produce their accounts. The aim was to validate the feasibility and interest of the project (ROI) and scope out the main business, process and IS components.
