The consequences of bad data can be significant:

  • Damaged client relationships caused by inaccurate communications
  • Lost reputation if the above happens at any scale
  • Increased staff costs to monitor and resolve data-related issues
  • Reduced productivity from continuously allocating valuable resource to address data problems
  • Regulatory fines if customer data is misrepresented or regulatory reporting is inaccurate.
  • Strategic decisions based on poor data can be damaging to both clients and the firm
  • Cost of compliance will grow if data issues are ignored
SIPP Providers need to keep a keen eye on how data is collated, processed and reported to ensure they can run an efficient operation, avoid falling foul of the regulator and maintain customer trust.
