Case Study: Schroders achieves data assurance and improved operational efficiency with Experian's Pandora

How Schroders created a data assurance capability for its investment group

Schroders, a global asset manager overseeing nearly £400bn, faced fragmented legacy data processes, duplicated start-of-day checks and poor-quality feeds that slowed operations, increased costs and elevated operational and regulatory risk. Siloed teams and opaque technical flows meant many data issues went undetected until after consumption, forcing repeated manual fixes.

Schroders deployed Experian Pandora—chosen for its adaptability, ease of implementation and cost—beddding it down in about three months with 95% of the integration done in-house and visualized via Tableau. The platform proactively flagged anomalies and enabled impact analysis, leading to faster fixes, a marked improvement in start-of-day data quality (system-interaction issues fell from just under 15% to about half that within eight months), less duplication, freed staff time and improved morale and governance.
