Accelerating customer remediation excellence

When things haven't gone as planned for current or former customers of a financial institution, there's a need to put them right. Regulators are placing increasing pressure on financial institutions to remediate customers at speed and scale with a focus on quality and sustainability. The goal? To boost compliance and customer satisfaction while minimizing reputational damage.

Regulators are also questioning the buildup of billions of dollars in undistributed remediation payments. They're demanding investment in systems, processes, and data analytics to halt the vicious cycle of having more affected customers while ensuring ongoing compliance.

With customer experience paramount to success, organizations that deliver best-in-class remediation have a competitive edge. They can rebuild trust and relationships with customers while minimizing risks by focusing on transparency, operational excellence, and environmental and social governance outcomes.

Genpact's remediation-as-a-service (RaaS) solution provides the people, processes, and technology to meet regulatory and customer demands with quality, transparency, scale, and speed so you can concentrate on other areas of business.

The challenge

The challenging path to customer remediation

Today's regulators are eagle-eyed, able to spot errors at speed. And they're just as quick to issue consent orders or other enforcement actions. Fines can run into the billions and critically impact profitability, and regulator-imposed asset caps can limit a bank's growth and ability to serve its customers. So, financial institutions must ensure they aren't on the receiving end of these penalties.

Quick identification of operational issues and their root causes is vital. Financial services institutions must spot abusive or deceptive behaviors and resolve errors at speed by:

• Heightening security to enhance data privacy, data security, and disaster recovery
• Improving client and address identification through the use of data analytics
• Better addressing client needs by streamlining communication touchpoints
• Meeting regulatory compliance expectations through continuous monitoring
• Minimizing cost pressures by ensuring that penalty distribution costs don't amplify
• Smoothing operations to deal with different scales of remediation

Let Genpact relieve these pain points by managing end-to-end remediation to reduce stress, costs, and risk.
