Glasgow-headquartered AutoRek, a firm that provides financial controls and regulatory reporting software, has teamed up with Nationwide to offer a data management solution and cloud-powered financial controls for a three-year period, with a two-year extension plan.
Gordon McHarg, managing director at AutoRek, stated:
“I am really pleased to welcome an organisation of Nationwide’s calibre to our list of clients. We are looking forward to building a good working relationship with the team and providing them with our experience in helping leading financial services firms better understand their transactional data.”
McHarg added:
“This is a landmark deal for AutoRek and the result of an extraordinary team effort on both sides.”
As noted by the vendor, the initiative will be rolled out in different phases and will offer ATMs, cards, payments, mortgages, and substantiation. As confirmed by the AutoRek team, the platform can handle attestation and reconciliation processes.
Ian Williams, director of financial control and operations at Nationwide Building Society, noted:
“After a thorough tender process, we were impressed with the quality of the AutoRek tool, its speed, adaptability and robustness.”
AutoRek was recently chosen by the Bank of England, after a competitive tender.
