OneView

Product Governance

Giving financial services organisations complete visibility of their product suite, to assess fair value, enable effective governance, quick decision making and help mitigate risk.

OneView
It is more important than ever to have risk-based and robust governance for all the products in your portfolio and all the markets you sell in.

Product governance requirements will vary depending on your organisation’s role in manufacturing and/or distributing the product, the product type, target market and distribution channel. This includes requirements to undertake Fair Value Assessments on products and review value information from the distribution chain.

Despite the complexity, many organisations are still storing product information across a number of spreadsheets and systems, with approvals often in the depths of inboxes. This makes it nearly impossible to demonstrate effective governance and quickly access information on your products.

OneView has been built to transform the way you govern your products. By providing a consistent, risk-based and global approach, OneView provides you with the framework you need to manage your products and help mitigate the risk of regulatory failures and reputational damage. This supports you in addressing key regulations including the Consumer Duty, Fair Value Assessment requirements, GI Pricing Practices, SMCR, MiFID II and PROD.

OneView has been designed to meet the needs of different product types, distribution channels, operating models and local requirements to provide flexibility and a proportionate application wherever it is adopted. With all your product information in one place, you have complete visibility of your products.

The FCA has published its second consultation paper of the new Consumer Duty rules which are due to be fully implemented by April 2023. A key element of this is for firms to evidence to their boards that their product governance arrangements are leading to good customer outcomes. This includes product approval, target market definition and monitoring of distribution strategies, all of which OneView can support with.

How it works

Onboard your new products, through a data capture process that automatically recognises the oversight requirements for your area of the business and instantly allocates accountable individuals and teams for review.
Undertake risk assessments of your products to automatically calculate a score which drives the scope and frequency of oversight work to be performed on your products. This allows you to focus on the higher risk areas of your product portfolio.
The risk-based dynamic framework helps you to perform appropriate reviews and product governance for new, changing and existing products.
OneView helps you to efficiently monitor your products on an on-going basis throughout the life-cycle of your products. When changes occur, this will be reflected in the scope of oversight required, so you can ensure relevant updates are undertaken.
OneView provides you with product governance management information to facilitate efficient oversight of your product range. And with dynamic reporting you can provide your stakeholders or the regulators with the information they require, when they require it.
