Finance Contract Management

Challenges in Finance Contract Management
in the UAE

Without a CLM solution, financial institutions can face various issues managing contracts.

High Transaction Volumes
Banks, real estate financiers, and investment firms handle thousands of contracts simultaneously. Common issues include missed deadlines for critical transactions, increased operational costs due to rework, or delays in customer service, impacting satisfaction and retention.
Regulatory Compliance
Adhering to regulatory requirements is vital in the UAE’s financial sector. Institutions must comply with laws like the UAE’s Commercial Transactions Law and international standards, such as AML and CTF regulations. Non-compliance can lead to severe penalties, reputational damage, and operational disruptions.

Key Statistic: A report by the Dubai Financial Services Authority (DFSA) highlighted that regulatory breaches related to AML accounted for over $3M of compliance violations in 2023.
Manual Errors and Delays
Traditional contract management methods, including paper-based drafting and manual approvals, are error-prone and inefficient. Errors slow down the contract lifecycle, increasing legal and financial risks. For example, errors in loan agreements can result in incorrect interest calculations, affecting institutions and customers.
Lack of Visibility
Without a centralized system, tracking contract statuses, amendments, and critical milestones becomes daunting. This lack of visibility results in limited insights into contract analytics for strategic decision-making. Moreover, missing a renewal deadline for a lease financing contract could result in financial losses or strained client relationships.
