New Customer Story: ASN Bank

Facing compliance challenges like BCBS 239 due to legacy systems and manual, spreadsheet-based processes, ASN Bank implemented Collibra's unified platform to build a new, transparent foundation for data governance. As a result, the bank can now confidently demonstrate compliance to regulators by instantly tracing data lineage for risk reports and providing a clear, auditable view of data ownership, quality and usage.
