Founded in Alberta in 1938 to give citizens an alternative source of credit during the Great Depression, ATB Financial (ATB) is now the province’s largest financial institution. Like many financial services companies, ATB continuously seeks to innovate to expand services, increase client satisfaction, and achieve operational efficiencies to compete with big, established banks as well as financial technology startups. ATB Financial have already begun moving their SAP ERP systems to Google Cloud. It was a logical extension for ATB to choose BigQuery as their data warehouse and data. After moving their SAP data into BigQuery, not only are they able to enable business insights from multiple data sources 117 times faster than previous approaches, they are boosting security and reliability of the data environment, improving data governance and easing regulatory adherence. ATB Financial is also realizing millions in efficiency and technology cost savings by retiring legacy environments, all while readying for the future of banking in Canada.
