The two major global investment banks had their own set of systems, procedures and clients that needed integrating into the single bank whilst continuing to on-board their new clients. The requirement included the implementation of a single client on-boarding firm structure and alignment of systems and procedures to a single global policy.

A Target Operating Model which incorporated a strategic systems architecture was developed. Also, a System Integration Plan was developed to leverage the "best of breed" technology and working practices was produced. Lysis then successfully managed the execution of the programme over a 28-month period.
