NeoXam / Aro / No-Code Recon: Empowering Ops Teams to Ditch the Spreadsheets

No-Code Recon: Empowering Ops Teams to Ditch the Spreadsheets

Discover how a no-code, intelligent platform transforms reconciliation and operations workflows, resulting in reduced risks, slashed costs, and shortened delivery times.

Say Goodbye to Manual Reconciliations and Hello to Streamlined Operations with NeoXam Aro

In today’s financial markets, operations teams are asked to do more with less: more volume, more products, more regulations, but with less time, fewer people, zero tolerance for errors. Yet despite this, reconciliation still relies on spreadsheets and manual processes and checks. This creates hidden risk, slow onboarding, and constant firefighting.

NeoXam Aro changes that. As a no-code reconciliation platform, it lets your operations teams design, own, and automate data reconciliations without writing a single line of code, replacing fragile spreadsheets based workflows with robust and scalable controls.

Why Spreadsheet-Based Recon No Longer Works

The traditional reconciliation landscape is riddled with problems:

Error-prone handling

Copy-paste jobs, manual uploads, and inconsistent formats lead to input errors and missed breaks.

Uncontrolled data manipulation

Users can overwrite formulas or enter incorrect values in Excel, leading to misrepresentation of the data.

Low-value manual work

Ops teams spend most of their time on repetitive matching and ticking rather than analyzing and fixing root causes.

Siloed systems

One tool for data collection, another for transformation, and yet another for reporting, with lots of Excel files in between.

Vendor and IT dependency

Every new recon, data source, or rule change becomes a mini-IT project or a new vendor product.

Missed SLAs and compliance risk

Delays, low match rates, and unresolved breaks all put pressure on regulatory compliance and service levels,

Excel is powerful but brittle. It was never designed to be the backbone of institutional-grade reconciliation and control.

Exactly What Is a No-Code Reconciliation Platform?

It is a tool that lets operations users build and manage the full reconciliation process without code. In NeoXam Aro, ops teams can:

The result is an agile and auditable control framework owned by the businesses, not buried in code or spreadsheet.

NeoXam Aro brings all steps of reconciliation into a single, unified platform: ingesting and normalizing data, matching records across systems, managing exceptions, and delivering audit-ready reporting. Everything is accessible through a no-code interface designed for financial operations teams. Aro replaces scattered point solutions and manual trackers with one governed environment where every control is transparent, reusable, and versioned.

No-Code Data Ingestion, Normalization & Transformation

  • Self-service onboarding: Ops users can configure new files and feeds with Aro’s built-in, intuitive Data Modeler directly in the UI.
  • Business-friendly transformations: Standardize formats, enrich fields, join datasets, and apply validation rules without writing scripts.
  • Reusable templates: Save mappings and logic for specific custodians, brokers, or administrators and reuse them across reconciliations.
  • Less IT drag: What used to take weeks with ETL teams now takes hours using no-code, self-service config.

Intelligent Matching Engine – No-Code Rules, High Accuracy

  • Flexible match rules: Define which fields should match (e.g., account, ISIN, trade date, quantity, amount) and set tolerances, all through no-code rules.
  • Support for complex assets: Reconcile trades, positions, cash, derivatives, and structured products using the same engine.
  • N-way reconciliation: Reconcile across three or more systems at once, not just simple two-way comparisons.
  • Higher match rates: Ops can tune match logic directly, improving rates from 95% to 98.5% and cutting exception volumes significantly.

Exception Management with AI & Configurable Workflows

  • Smart prioritization: AI classifies breaks by likely root cause and materiality, so teams focus on the right things first.
  • Configurable workflows: Define ownership, steps, approvals, and escalation paths for each type of reconciliation and exception, purely by configuration.
  • Ops friendly inbox: Filter, sort, and bulk-process breaks with full visibility of history, comments and attachments, all in one place.
  • Fewer manual touches: Through intelligent auto-matching and workflow automation, firms typically achieve up to 50% reduction in manual interventions and as much as 70% fewer open exceptions.
