Bank Statement Analysis Simplified with Added Categories for Inflow and Outflow
Manually assessing data from the Bank Statement PDFs is a strenuous and time-consuming process. Automated Bank Statement Analysis tools on Precisa allow its users to extract the data and categorise them and facilitate more detailed segregation from the bank statements.
Why Do We Need a Category View?
Different public and private banks have various formats and do not have specific standards for abbreviations or narrations of the transaction history. Therefore, it can be challenging to interpret these layouts and categorize the transactions.
However, the transaction data is key to bank statement analysis. It can give insight into the customer’s spending patterns and risk factors about sanctioning a loan. Unfortunately, manually assessing these transactions and structuring data from unstructured text is challenging and time-consuming and often prone to errors.
