FSCS Data Readiness

Validate FSCS Single Customer View (SCV) regulatory reports with secure intake and automated checks. We return detailed findings enabling you to have confidence in your FSCS submissions.

Purpose-built for FSCS/PRA reporting assurance.

Two ways to use FSCS Data Readiness

Every firm is at a different stage with FSCS and SCV. That's why Datactics FSCS Data Readiness is available in two distinct ways:

Path 1: Managed Service
Send us your data.

Most banks choose to use Data Readiness as a managed service:

  • You send us your prepared FSCS SCV file via secure transfer

  • We run it through our FSCS rules, matching and data quality checks

  • You receive independent validation reports, exception lists and dashboards

  • No software to install, no UI to learn – our team does the heavy lifting while you keep your existing FSCS solution

This gives your regulatory and reporting teams outsourced data validation and assurance for FSCS, without changing how you submit your SCV today.

Path 2: In-House Deployment
Run Data Readiness in your own environment.

Some organisations prefer to bring Data Readiness in‑house:

  • Deploy the Datactics platform inside your own environment (on‑premises or cloud)

  • Your team runs FSCS checks directly and can reuse the same rules and workflows for other regulations (FATCA, EMIR, BBSI, and more)

  • Ideal if you want a repeatable, self‑service data quality and matching capability across multiple reports and jurisdictions

 

Not sure which path is right for you?

On a short call we can map your current FSCS/SCV set‑up, existing systems and team capacity, and recommend the most straightforward path to data readiness. The Key Features detailed below are the same whether you send us the data for a Managed Service, or you choose to run Data Readiness in-house.
