Advantages of BankStride Software Over Legacy Core Banking Systems
Loan exceptions monitoring is an essential function in the banking industry, ensuring that banks can effectively manage the risks associated with their lending activities. However, many banks still rely on outdated and inefficient systems for loan exceptions monitoring, such as manually collecting borrower information and documents via email and managing exception spreadsheets. This approach is prone to errors and can result in delays in identifying potential issues with borrowers. Fortunately, BankStride offers a solution to these inefficiencies, providing numerous advantages over traditional loan exceptions monitoring methods.
Disadvantages of Traditional Loan Exceptions Monitoring
One of the primary disadvantages of traditional loan exceptions monitoring methods is the reliance on manual processes. These manual processes, such as collecting borrower information and documents via email and managing exception spreadsheets, are prone to errors and can lead to delays in identifying potential issues with borrowers. Additionally, these manual processes can be time-consuming and result in a lack of standardization in loan exceptions monitoring processes, leading to inconsistencies and inaccuracies in borrower data.
Another disadvantage of traditional loan exceptions monitoring methods is the lack of real-time data analysis. Many legacy systems rely on batch processing, which means that data is processed in batches at set intervals, rather than in real-time. This approach can lead to delays in identifying potential issues with borrowers, making it difficult for banks to take timely corrective action.
Finally, traditional loan exceptions monitoring methods may lack the necessary scalability and flexibility to adapt to changing business needs. Banks may struggle to add new loan products or change their loan exceptions monitoring processes without significant investment in their IT infrastructure.
