Executive Summary

A leading financial services organization with over $50B in assets under management faced critical inefficiencies in their document processing operations. Their legacy system required extensive manual review, prone to errors, and created significant compliance risks due to slow processing times and inconsistent handling procedures.

Challenge:

Manual document processing was consuming 40+ hours per week for each compliance officer, creating bottlenecks that delayed critical business operations and increased regulatory risk exposure.

The Challenge

The organization processed over 15,000 documents monthly across multiple departments including loan origination, compliance, risk management, and customer onboarding. Their existing system faced multiple critical issues:

Time-Intensive Manual Processing

Average document processing time of 45 minutes per document, with complex regulatory filings taking up to 3 hours. This created significant delays in customer onboarding and loan approvals.

High Error Rates

Manual data extraction resulted in 12% error rate, leading to regulatory compliance issues, customer dissatisfaction, and costly rework cycles.

Inconsistent Processing Standards

Different teams followed varying procedures, creating inconsistency in data quality and making it difficult to maintain audit trails and compliance standards.

$

Rising Operational Costs

The organization was spending $3.2M annually on document processing operations, with costs increasing 15% year-over-year due to regulatory complexity growth.

The VIRSAIC Solution

CoTé implemented a comprehensive AI automation solution using the VIRSAIC platform, designed specifically for enterprise-grade document processing in highly regulated environments.

Solution Components
