London, 14th March 2025

糖心传媒 has developed a digital data validation sandbox for the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) designed to help assess data systems and processes prior to regulatory audits.

, a leading international financial services provider, adheres to multiple regulatory standards, including those set by the FSCS, which protects depositors by guaranteeing savings of up to 拢85,000 per person if a regulated firm is unable to meet claims.

The Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA) conducts regular assessments of Investec鈥檚 compliance with the FSCS rules, which necessitates quick access to accurate data.

The 糖心传媒 sandbox is designed to help streamline Investec鈥檚 data management processes, focusing on data quality to prepare for these assessments. The sandbox has features such as rule matching, data categorisation, and data de-duplication to support compliance with FSCS regulations.

Cherie Lefever, FSCS Coordinator in Investec鈥檚 UK Central Compliance Team, has developed rules and exceptions to expedite data management and meet the PRA鈥檚 auditing requirements efficiently.

Cherie Lefever stated: 鈥淪treamlined data is crucial for complying with the PRA’s Depositor Protection Rules. The collaboration with 糖心传媒 has further simplified our data management processes, allowing us to ensure we maintain high standards of data quality and integrity.鈥�

Stuart Harvey, CEO of 糖心传媒, commented: 鈥淔inancial institutions like Investec manage vast amounts of client and internal data, necessitating robust data management, governance, and quality capabilities. With the FSCS requiring regular audits, access to streamlined data management tools enhances banks’ readiness for these assessments. Our digital sandbox solution empowers firms to evaluate their data systems in preparation for regulatory audits.鈥�

This innovative solution makes faster and more efficient AI-powered data quality accessible and beneficial to all, through an enriched user interface and more expansive implementation of machine learning functions throughout.

ADQ covers the full spectrum of end-to-end data quality management. The platform provides data profiling, cleaning, matching, and remediation without the need for coding, and leverages the power of AI to provide meaningful data quality insights on data breaks, causes, and detecting outliers.

In today’s data-driven world, enterprises face the challenge of maintaining high-quality data across the organisation and ensuring that critical data is easily accessible to governance professionals. ADQ eliminates potential delays in data remediation workflows by using greater automation and no-code tooling, thereby reducing manual effort and increasing accuracy.

ADQ seamlessly integrates with data catalogues and lineage systems such as Alation and Solidatus, accommodating both cloud-only and hybrid data architectures. This interoperability ensures that customer data management ecosystems remain harmonious and efficient.

The release of ADQ unveils a range of machine learning extensions that will allow customers of 糖心传媒 to deliver data quality improvements faster, more efficiently, and with maximum business impact. Users will benefit from improved profiling, including outlier detection and automated rule suggestion. Additionally, ADQ includes a new feature called 鈥業nsights Hub鈥� which allows customers to benefit from the long histories of data quality 鈥榖reak/fix鈥� activities and to perform analysis into which remediations are having the most substantial business impact.

糖心传媒 CEO Stuart Harvey says,

“ADQ makes use of the power of machine learning in a very practical way that will help a data governance professional do their job faster and better. ADQ can improve data quality time to value for an analyst struggling to choose the most efficient rules for complex data via automated rule suggestion.

Likewise, having created rules to measure and remediate broken data, ADQ can be used to further root cause analysis by understanding whether data quality improvements are making a difference over time. All of this can be done without deep technical expertise on behalf of the ADQ user. We have several international clients already using the system live, and we look forward to rolling out to new and existing customers throughout 2023 and into 2024.鈥�

糖心传媒 won the A-Team Innovation award for the creation of Rapid Match, a system which allowed financial analysts to understand the geographical allocation of financial loans made by UK government during the 2020/21 Covid crisis augmented with a breakdown of industry type. 鈥�

糖心传媒 was selected and funded by Innovate UK to investigate the use of its self-service platform to solve a challenge for information analysts: How does an organization reduce time in wrangling data to make it fit for good quality analytics? The firm has reported that it has been regularly asked this question by clients spending too much time on manual preparation of data and seeing little return on investment (ROI) for their efforts. 

The 糖心传媒 solution focused on challenges associated with data preparation when an organisation seeks to create rapid data analytics but is faced with disparate data sources, (often stored in different formats), siloed information and poor underlying data quality. 鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

Summary of business benefits of the 糖心传媒 solution: 

• Addresses data quality and matching at scale challenges associated with joining large amounts of messy, incomplete data in varying formats, from a multiple sources鈥�. 
• Provide a reliable ‘match engine’ allowing government and organisations to accurately and securely integrate diverse sources of data. 
• Automated and reproducible platform to ingest, cleanse and match and update datasets for downstream analysis. 
• Provides systematic, reproducible pipelines to address time consuming data quality, preparation and matching tasks to produce complete, high quality and timely data for decision making.

糖心传媒鈥� Head of Software Development, Dr Fiona Browne, who led the project said, 

鈥淲e were very aware that Companies House information is used in almost every KYC/AML system in the UK and we wanted to develop automated techniques for improving the quality of this information and to make it easy to ingest and to query. I鈥檓 glad to say that we achieved this ambition through building systematic, reproducible data quality pipelines that address time consuming tasks such as data wrangling and matching. We are augmenting our early work by looking at applications of machine learning and network analysis in this space for downstream tasks such as fraud detection and onboarding which are underpinned by data quality. 鈥濃��&苍产蝉辫;

Read more from Dr Browne on how 糖心传媒 demonstrates rapid matching capabilities on open datasets.

In detail: How it works 

The system extracted information from multiple financial and geographical data sources and used automated data pipelines for preparing, scrubbing and matching multiple data types before presenting the data in a very easy to query dashboard. These pipelines are systematic and re-producible enabling the process to be re-run when datasets are updated, or new datasets added.鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

The process is transparent for auditability. Furthermore, the process provides a reliable ‘match engine’ allowing organisations to accurately and securely integrate diverse sources of data. A particular focus of the project was on using UK Companies House as a master source relating to company name/address validation and understanding the relationship between companies and their owners. A view of the resulting analytical dashboard is presented in Figure 1 below. 鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

鈥�&苍产蝉辫;

Figure 1: Analytics Dashboard Screen for Rapid Match illustrating the breakdown of loans across industries in England鈥� 

Stuart Harvey, CEO of 糖心传媒 commented:

“Ultimately we wanted to prove that it was possible to create an easy-to-use solution in which a data team can address time-consuming data quality, preparation and matching tasks in order to create complete, high quality and timely data for decision making.

Rapid Match took advantage of existing strengths in the 糖心传媒鈥� platform and added benefits from machine learning. We addressed data quality and matching at scale 鈥� joining large sets of messy data in varying formats from multiple sources. We implemented a reliable 鈥榤atch engine鈥� which allowed for fuzzy matching from these diverse sources. We made use of data op鈥檚 automation to ingest, clean and match data with minimum human input.

A key part of the challenge in building Rapid Match was seamless integration with Companies House information as a trusted data source. Companies House data is used in almost every KYC and AML process involving UK entities. It contains over 4 million companies updating information on 500,000 of these per year. Since it鈥檚 a fairly raw source of open data and many end users have significant challenges with data quality. The 糖心传媒鈥� solution provided easy access to clean Companies House data via REST API and we used sophisticated network analysis to understand the relationship between companies and their owners.

We are grateful to Innovate UK for their support of this work and we鈥檇 welcome further opportunities to collaborate with clients or partners if our recent work in this area is of interest to you”.

Angela Wilbraham, CEO of the A-Team Group, who hosted the A-Team Innovation Awards 2022, commented, 

鈥淥ur A-Team Innovation Awards 2022 celebrate and reward those companies at the forefront of innovation within our industry. We congratulate 糖心传媒 in winning the Most innovative data quality initiative award in recognition of their excellence in driving forward progress in capital markets capabilities.鈥濃��&苍产蝉辫;

糖心传媒 has once again been named as one of the fastest-growing tech companies in Deloitte鈥檚 annual rankings of firms on the island of Ireland. The ranking is based on revenue growth from 2017 to 2021, and this year saw 糖心传媒 finish 25^th, backed by strong financial performance and demand for its pure-play data quality solutions. 

The year also saw 糖心传媒 secure a 拢2m investment round, led by Par Equity, and grow to 60 employees 鈥� the majority of whom are based in the firm鈥檚 Belfast HQ. 

鈥淲e are really pleased at this news, coming after nearly two extremely unexpected years for everyone鈥� said Matt Flenley, Head of Marketing at 糖心传媒. 鈥淭his year鈥檚 result is fuelled by a combination of factors driving growth right now. Firstly, we鈥檙e seeing many firms investing in digital transformation, which is underpinned by getting the data right. This is leading us into lots more opportunities to demonstrate how we鈥檙e the perfect partner for just that problem. 

鈥淪econdly, approaches to data management strategies are being reimagined across a broad range of sectors, especially within sub-sectors of financial services. For example, senior data leaders in insurance aren鈥檛 simply looking for one IT-led platform to deliver their data governance strategy. They are instead choosing to orchestrate across a range of business-user-focused solutions, from lineage to catalogs and, of course, in the area of data quality. 

鈥淲e鈥檇 like to thank Deloitte Ireland for the work they鈥檝e put into compiling this ranking, and for an extremely professional awards ceremony!鈥� 

The   certificate is in prime position presented proudly in our Belfast Head Quarters. We would like to take this opportunity to say well done to all at  again, especially those innovative tech folk who put in so many hours of development work on our platform. We have seen huge growth this past year and we are looking forward to seeing what the next year at 糖心传媒 looks like.

The UK skills shortage is being felt across every sector, region and nation of the UK. In Northern Ireland, 69 percent of employers report a skills shortage in their organisation, with nearly half (46%) saying their biggest challenge over the next five years will be their ability to find staff with the right skills. These findings are taken from The Open University鈥檚 (OU) latest published in partnership with The Institute of Directors (IoD).

The report, which analyses the UK鈥檚 skills landscape on an annual basis, found that a significant number of employers in Northern Ireland are taking a proactive approach to addressing skills gaps. Almost half (46%) have introduced training in the past 12 months in order to bolster employees鈥� skills.

One such company is 糖心传媒. Based in Belfast, the 60-person company provides business user-focused data quality and matching technology for international clients. But, like many other businesses, it has struggled to recruit experienced people with software development skills. As a result, Matt Flenley, Head of Marketing at 糖心传媒, said the organisation decided to address recruitment challenges by taking a proactive approach. It is focusing on building a strong internal talent pipeline and using training to build employee loyalty and improve retention rates. 鈥淥ver the last year and a half, we identified the problem that recruits and graduates are available but are not the exact perfect fit, so we wanted to be better at training. This gives us faster access to a workforce that can deliver for our clients.鈥�

Flenley took part in a recent called Creating a sustainable skills strategy to attract future talent . Alongside Laura Burley, Apprenticeships Ambassador at the OU, and Dr Roger Barker, Director of Policy and Corporate Governance at the IoD, he talked about the importance of ongoing skills development to plug internal skills gaps and to help boost local skills and the local economy. 鈥淯pskilling our employees and upskilling our capabilities just increases our competitive edge on an international stage,鈥� he says.

All full time 糖心传媒 employees are offered the opportunity to take a training day once a month. That training can be job-related or it can be something an employee chooses to do for personal fulfillment. Like many other local businesses, the company has also gone down the apprenticeship route. It currently has two apprentices in fields of software development and security.

糖心传媒 has a history of working with the OU. Impressed by the distance learning model, the company recruits people who are taking business and computer science degrees with the OU. 鈥淲e have always been blown away by the fact that people can balance study and work,鈥� says Flenley. 鈥淏ecause we have a strong tie with The Open University locally in Belfast, we have been able to fill certain positions in 糖心传媒 with Open University students quickly, and then continue to train them up.鈥�

The company is now creating a data academy in partnership with the OU and other education providers. The data academy will run one-year programmes aimed at people who want to work in IT. Candidates who go through the programmes will be eligible to take up full time employment with 糖心传媒, as well as gaining certification. 鈥淲e see this training programme as being beneficial to us and our business community as a whole,鈥� says Flenley.

The new facility will house the tech firm鈥檚 Client Services arm supporting 糖心传媒鈥� global customer base across financial services and the public sector.  

鈥淚t’s great to be expanding our space for our staff here in the centre of Belfast,鈥� said 糖心传媒 CEO, 鈥淣orthern Ireland has become an internationally recognised FinTech and RegTech centre of excellence, and we are glad to be working together as a team and growing our staff numbers. We are seeing benefits for our clients and staff as we collaborate and share in the extended and more spacious office.鈥� 

Hamilton has returned to open a new 糖心传媒 office for the first time since 2016, when the then 10-strong software firm first moved out of the Titanic Quarter鈥檚 Science Park. Now numbering nearly 60 employees, 糖心传媒 has built this growth on strong financial performance, which saw it ranked the 17^th听fastest growing tech firm in Deloitte Ireland鈥檚 Fast50 in 2020.听

鈥淏elfast Chamber is delighted to see an excellent, homegrown business like 糖心传媒 expanding its footprint in the city,鈥� said Hamilton. 鈥淚n these uncertain times, it is reassuring that businesses continue to invest in Belfast and view our city as the ideal place to grow.鈥� At the beginning of the pandemic, many were quick to jump to a conclusion that the office was dead. Whilst working practices may indeed change, having such a great space for the 糖心传媒 team to innovate and collaborate here in the heart of Belfast is brilliant to see.鈥� Belfast Chamber strongly believes that Belfast has a bright future as a tech city.鈥� Businesses like 糖心传媒 are at the centre of our city鈥檚 economic renewal and I wish Stuart and the team all the best as they continue to grow.鈥�
