As people’s lives are transformed by new business models and time-saving new gadgets, customers expect better products and services, quicker and cheaper than ever before. Instant shaming on social media awaits companies who fail to meet these expectations, and financial services companies are like any other in this respect.
Navigating this landscape while returning a surplus to shareholders requires a deep understanding of operations and the technology that enables them. Operating models need to transform continually to deliver better results while containing costs and remaining compliant with regulations.
At Altus Consulting, we really get this. It’s why we only work in Financial Services, why so many of our consultants have joined us from operational or change roles within the sector, and why we have meticulously built models that describe what each type of financial firm does and what they sell. Choose a partner that understands your industry like you do.
We are passionate about describing and improving how Financial Services operate. From products and regulation to operations and technology, we have built the most detailed reference models on the market for Insurance, Investments and Banking operations, over nearly two decades. We couple these models with a range of analysis and change techniques that have been engineered to produce repeatable, assured answers to common industry challenges. Our consultants come from the industry, and all contribute to this depth of knowledge. The outcome for our clients is advice and solutions that are based upon a crystal clear understanding of operational reality.
With any business transformation comes the need to reshape the way the organisation works. Understanding the core capabilities needed to deliver on business objectives is fundamental to getting the new design right.
Altus brings specialist industry knowledge, engineering rigour and a tried-and-trusted method for building operating models. Uniquely focused on Financial Services, our consultants have all worked in the sector.
We partner with our clients to understand the nature and maturity of their current capabilities and the desired end state for the business, along the way identifying any current pain points. We then have a clear view of capability gaps and inefficiencies and can set out a practical roadmap to build the processes, technology solutions and teams for an operating model fit for the future.
Turn your strategy into reality with Altus Consulting.
