What is document workflow automation for financial institutions?
Document workflow automation uses technology to digitize, route, and manage documents across their entire lifecycle, streamlining tasks like classification, indexing, approvals, and archiving. By reducing manual effort, minimizing errors, and ensuring consistent handling of sensitive information, financial institutions can accelerate processes, improve operational efficiency, support regulatory compliance, and free staff to focus on higher-value work.
How does FASTdocs automate document workflows?
The FASTdocs Workflow Library uses Event Driven Workflows, which are single document processes kicked off by specific events. For example, creating a new document can automatically trigger review, approval, and routing steps without manual intervention. This approach minimizes the risk of errors, leading to greater accuracy and efficiency.
How does workflow automation support regulatory compliance and risk management in banking?
Workflow automation helps financial institutions enforce regulatory compliance by ensuring that every document and task follows the correct process. Role-based access controls limit actions to authorized staff, automated logging creates a detailed audit trail, and built-in workflow rules enforce mandatory compliance steps, such as review and approval of sensitive documents. Workflows can also trigger retention or purge actions, helping institutions maintain adherence to internal policies and regulatory standards.
Which banking processes can be automated with FASTdocs?
The FASTdocs Workflow Library includes various pre-built workflows, including but not limited to:
