From an address spreadsheet to an ISO 20022 decision
Many ISO 20022 topics start with a normal finance file. The challenge is not only format: it is keeping the business view clear.
Start from the real file
A useful review starts with the file teams actually use, or with an adapted extract that reflects the same complexity.
The objective is not to expose the method, but to understand whether risk is concentrated or spread out.
Keep the business view
Teams should be able to find their rows, understand the status and know what to fix.
A good deliverable is not a black box: it is clear enough to support a decision.
Decide the next step
If the risk is low, monitoring may be enough. If it is concentrated, targeted cleanup may be fast.
If it is broad, the review gives teams a concrete base to scope a more structured project.
Before the review
- 1Describe the business context.
- 2Choose a representative extract.
- 3Keep identifiers useful to the team.
- 4Plan for a simple readout.
FAQ
