Case Study: Banco BV achieves full cloud cost visibility and financial control with IBM Cloudability

Turning cloud complexity into strategic advantage

Banco BV, one of Brazil’s largest private financial institutions, was struggling to manage rising cloud costs as its use of Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, and Amazon Web Services expanded. Without a centralized view, the bank needed better visibility by team, budget, and system, plus stronger forecasting and control to support more disciplined cloud financial management.

IBM implemented IBM Cloudability to give Banco BV granular cost allocation, automated reporting, anomaly detection, and savings recommendations across all three cloud providers. With IBM’s integrations, workshops, and tailored enablement, the bank improved financial visibility and proactive optimization, avoiding nearly 30% of projected cloud costs over three years and achieving near real-time spend insight with more accurate forecasting.
