Management Information
Management Information is all about deriving information from a Bank's other activities. Financial Services companies are heavily regulated. In addition to the statutory reporting of all companies, they have to provide regulatory information to:
Government Tax Authorities - Information on customer tax withheld and the country of residence of customers.
Government Security Services - Information on Suspected Terrorists, Money Laundering and Fraud.
Central Bank and Financial Services Regulators - Information on credit exposures, capital adequacy and liquidity
Finally, since the raw material, work in progress and finished goods of financial services groups is information, it lends itself to the production of management accounting information. As a consequence, Financial services groups have very large databases for analysing assets, liabilities, costs and income as well as non-financial data for a variety of marketing and other management needs.
