Overview:
A Fortune 500 firm specializing in portfolio management and financial services that is a leading provider of financial products and services in the academic, research, medical, and government fields. The Client was looking to lower dependency on manual processes for its data management and analysis activities.
Business Challenge:

Currently, there is a heavy reliance on iterative manual work. Analysts goes through the data, perform multiple ad-hoc querying to extract data into dashboards, perform exploratory analysis, moves on to Machine Learning and Statistical Analysis to finally arrive at the presentation. This process typically takes 6-8 Weeks for every single report.
Marlabs Solution:
This solution was built on mAdvisor, an AI & Cognitive Computing Platform that aims to automate the entire process of data analysis and machine learning using cognitive approaches like Machine Reasoning, NLP, NLG etc. The solution used the mAdvisor’s Automated Pattern Discovery module to better understand data of several financial and investment products they offer and quickly generate insights and key findings. Several reports were autogenerated including financial and compliance, marketing, and CRM reports, to cut down report generation time from days to hours.
Innovative features include:
- Automate complex data analysis – Analysts have the options to slice and dice the data, pick the machine learning scripts to run and create custom reports without writing a single line of code
- Emulate human being on data analyst – mAdvisor tries to emulate the human thinking that goes through when doing data analysis.
- Natural Language Generation (NLG) – Engine creates automated narratives for the computation results to create a report in readable format
