Bendigo and Adelaide Bank has deployed Wolters Kluwer’s OneSumX for Regulatory Reporting to improve operational efficiency.

In particular, the bank will leverage the platform for its authorised deposit-taking institution in Australia.

The move wraps up the first phase of modernised economic and financial statistical reporting (EFS), a regulatory programme of the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority.

Wolters Kluwer Finance, Risk & Reporting Australia and New Zealand account manager David Rule said: “Working with the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank finance team has been a mutually rewarding experience for us all.

“Their professional and dedicated approach meant the first deliverables of the project were signed off and ready for production well ahead of time.”

In order to support consistency, reconciliation and accuracy, OneSumX utilises a single data source.
