Case Study: Barclays Bank of Kenya accelerates accounts reconciliations and improves data quality with CaseWare Analytics' IDEA

Barclays Bank of Kenya - Customer Case Study

Barclays Bank of Kenya faced the challenge of accelerating accounts reconciliations and improving data quality across a Pan‑African operation spanning 13 countries. To meet this need the bank, with support from KPMG Kenya Advisory Services, adopted CaseWare Analytics’ IDEA® (IDEA Server analytics) to analyze large volumes of transactional and customer data for reconciliation and remediation.

CaseWare Analytics implemented IDEA to automate data preparation and comparisons — running about 400,000 records daily for internal reconciliations and analyzing 8–12 million records per day across 13 countries for data quality remediation. The solution delivered measurable results: faster, more efficient reconciliations, improved data quality, reliable reports from complex comparisons (e.g., 800,000 records with 30+ fields), and collaborative analytics becoming an integral part of Barclays Bank of Kenya’s daily processes.
