not act on it? Or perhaps the wrong questions were asked in the rst
place?
We prefer our analysts to be on the ‘o ence’. For us, this means using
data to nd novel opportunities to make TransferWise better for our
customers. The main challenge here is ensuring that any ndings
translate into action. But since our analysts are deeply embedded
within their teams, often the whole team help to prioritise these
‘o ence’ analyses. This means they’re waiting with anticipation to use
the result — meaning very little work is ever wasted.

Marko’s team were awaiting his ndings, and together they worked
through the list and identi ed the “quick wins” for our customers. One
of the main reasons we need to call our customers, is that sometimes
they transfer us a di erent amount to the one we were expecting (a
‘mismatch’). The Experience team quickly built the option to resolve
these mismatches through ‘self service’ online, removing the need for a
lengthy phone call.

Organising for impact
‘Business Intelligence’ is only valuable if something happens as a result.
If nothing changes for your customers, then there’s simply no point.
