Use case

Designing, formalising, and streamlining privacy management

Our major banking client was seeking assistance with an independent analysis of its privacy framework and personal data uses across the entire organisation to assess whether they were in accordance with local privacy laws and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

KPMG’s rigorous assessment provided senior management with confidence that the processing of personal information and privacy risks were adequately addressed. It also embedded privacy awareness and better accountability throughout the organisation. The bank benefitted from confirming that personal information is used in accordance with the privacy principles, and that the control environment supporting the processing of personal information is robust. Using KPMG’s Data Protection Navigator helped to reduce the bank’s regulatory and reputational risks.
