ENGAGEMENT SUMMARY
PROJECT EXECUTION
Our client faced the significant challenge to unify multiple separate banks into one bank. We were assisting with verification of fees and interest applied, providing the best settlement methodology and fee scheme, pointing out leakages and providing revenue enhancing initiatives to the client and its card issuance (Credit & Debit Cards).
Despite the complexity of different systems and settlement methodologies we managed to execute the project in 10 weeks. We presented 44 credit card and 10 debit card strategies to the bank.
Following our main principle of presenting acceptable & implementable strategies the bank went for 24 credit card strategies and 4 Debit card strategies.
In terms of acceptance ratio impact we reached acceptance for 45% of the value presented.

The client did the development of the strategies internally, reaching first implementation within 6 weeks of the projects end.
​
We reached implementation in all income levers of the bank, with the majority coming from the fee income of the bank. This was also debited to the fact that DC don’t have any interest.
