Financial products subledger, utilises a central hub to manage accounting flows to delivery increased transparency and control. The solution runs a multi-GAAP accounting engine and enables financial institutions to centralise accounting rules and insurance contracts. This not only reduces the cost of reconciliation, it also increases efficiency in finance functions.

SAP Fiori-based embedded analytics makes the solution a dynamic tool for the end user and takes it beyond a pure instrument for documentation to a powerful platform that generates data analysis to facilitate financial steering. These enhancements build on what we’ve already accomplished in our co-innovation project with Swiss Re, and we look forward to implementing this at a larger scale among our banking and insurance customers.”
