The Problem
Tan Family Office in Singapore relied heavily on manual data entry to maintain their financial records. The operations team spent most of their time keying in data from custodian statements, bank reports, and investment summaries into spreadsheets.
This manual process was not only time-consuming but also error-prone. Data entry mistakes could cascade through reports, leading to incorrect portfolio valuations and misguided investment decisions.

Manual data entry is not just a time sink. It's a risk. Every manual step introduces the possibility of error, and those errors compound over time.
