Overcoming Challenges in High-Volume Financial Translation

The bank faced several challenges in managing its high-stakes financial content. With a demanding workload of over 1,800 projects annually, the team needed exceptional speed and precision. Strict deadlines were essential to meeting the bank’s operational needs.

The highly specialized nature of the content, focusing on finance and economics, demanded a team of translators and reviewers with deep domain expertise. Additionally, the bank required all linguists to be thoroughly vetted and approved by their in-house translation team to ensure compliance with rigorous quality standards.

Compounding these challenges was the need for secure handling of sensitive financial materials. Robust file-sharing systems were required to maintain confidentiality and comply with regulatory requirements.

A specialized project management team ensured seamless communication and efficient project execution. This team included project managers, a language engineer, a customer success manager, a language and quality lead, an account manager, and an in-house reviewer. Their collaborative efforts streamlined workflows and enhanced coordination with the client’s internal team.

Welocalize also integrated its secure client portal to manage project requests and tasks, providing greater visibility and control. This system was fully compatible with the client’s internal portal, enabling efficient workflows and real-time tracking of assignments.
