BCBS 239 data remediation with PwC, Microsoft Purview deployed across the critical data estate.

Alpha Bank London

Outcome as stated
A stronger evidence model for Critical Data Elements and finance reporting views, with improved data quality monitoring, traceable lineage and clearer stewardship.
  1. 01

    Challenge

    Finance and risk reporting confidence depended on evidence that was distributed across systems, spreadsheet processes, and informal ownership.

  2. 02

    Operating context

    A regulated banking environment where senior leaders needed confidence in Critical Data Elements, reporting views, ownership, and remediation sequencing.

  3. 03

    Intervention

    Implemented Critical Data Element identification, capture and monitoring processes and clarified ownership, with Microsoft Purview deployed across the critical data estate.

  4. 04

    Board-level lesson

    A board trusts reporting more when evidence is inspectable, owned, and linked to consequences rather than asserted through governance language alone.

The pattern is common in regulated data work: senior leaders do not only need a correct report. They need to know which data matters, who owns it, where it moves, what can break, and which remediation steps change the risk profile.

If the same pattern is showing up in your organisation, start with the decision at stake.

A useful first conversation clarifies the operating context, evidence gaps, ownership model, and practical 90-day sequence.
