The Challenge
What the client needed to solve.
A mid-sized Dubai bank was operating core reconciliation workflows on a combination of legacy software and manual Excel processes across 12 branches. Month-end close required 8 days of manual effort from a 14-person finance team, with a significant error rate that was creating audit exposure.
Our Approach
How Samura and Altix Codeit engaged.
Samura conducted a 3-week process audit across all 12 branches, mapping every manual touchpoint and identifying the highest-impact automation opportunities. Altix Codeit then built a custom reconciliation and reporting platform integrated with the bank's existing core banking system via API, eliminating the manual Excel layer entirely.
The Outcome
What was achieved.
Processing time reduced by 62%. Month-end close dropped from 8 days to 3. The 14-person finance team reallocated approximately 40% of their time to higher-value analysis work. Annual cost saving of AED 2.4M achieved within the first full year of operation.
The team understood our regulatory constraints from day one and built around them rather than asking us to adapt our processes to their technology.
