“A well-planned reconciliation helps banks reduce risks emanating from disparate systems and processes or manual interventions. Lack of a centralized, automated system could lead to expensive rework of reports and delays in account settlement. ITRS draws on our extensive experience of serving the evolving technology needs of global banks”.
