Case study

Realised untapped value for a global remittance company

Summary

Following the merger of two global remittance companies, this scaling FinTech was looking for ways to identify and realise post-merger value through bringing the leadership and operations of the two organisations together. 

Following the acquisition, the two brands had been run independently resulting in duplication, increased costs and a low return on investment.

To address these challenges we restructured the Executive Committee to remove duplication and create a platform for growth, and delivered efficiencies through integrating processes, technology and people.
The resulting Operating Model and integration roadmaps provided the combined organisation with immediate, mid-term and long-term opportunities to reduce costs, drive value and fuel global growth.

Results

  • A redesigned top-line structure which removed duplication, clarified accountabilities and facilitated a “one firm” strategy whilst maintaining critical brand differentiation
  • A 30% reduction in top line costs
  • Identification and quantification of over 50 integration initiatives
