We used to spend hours checking the general ledger for mismatches and late postings. Even small inconsistencies could take a long time to track down, especially when multiple systems and manual adjustments were involved. Lately, I’ve noticed more teams using specialised reconciliation software...

There is a lot of noise around AI in finance, but one area where adoption seems practical rather than experimental is financial spreading. It sits at the intersection of document processing, data normalisation, and analytics, which makes it a good test case for how useful AI really is in...

Over the last year or so, it feels like more lending and credit teams are experimenting with AI to handle parts of financial spreading that used to be very manual. Things like extracting data from statements, normalising line items, and preparing spreads for analysis seem to be moving toward...

For founders and operators in lending or credit-heavy businesses, financial spreading can quietly slow down deal velocity. Even when credit policy is clear, preparing clean spreads from borrower statements takes time and often involves rework. We’ve seen teams experiment with Collatio Financial...
