Codec empowers CFOs of European banks drive performance improvement, effect strategic change and assure control using software built for the retail banking sector.
At BPH, Poland’s third largest bank, Inflection Point has deployed our retail banking performance management system to 800 users, leading to 106% growth on ROAE (Return On Average Equity) in the first year and a 14.7% improvement in BPH's CI factor (Cost Income).
The Challenge for the CFO
- The CFO is unable to accurately explain why performance is up or down at the end of the reporting period.
- The reason for this is often that there is an inconsistency in the financial and operations figures used for management purposes.
- The finance and controlling department spends a huge amount of time preparing reports for its customers and no time is left to analyse them.
- As a result, board packs and reports can lack the level of commentary and insight required to explain financial performance.
- This reduces the bank's ability to respond to changes in the market in a timely manner; often management's response is a month or so after events have taken place.
- Therefore, implementing strategic change is difficult and can restrict the CFO and the bank's management team's ability to effect the behavioural changes that will lead to performance improvement.
