Executive business case

Every line shows the percentage or multiple used, applied to your inputs.

Your funnel

US$3,200M annual payment value → a 8 point approval gap to the 95% enterprise benchmark = US$256.0M of leakage → 32% of that is realistically recoverable, adjusted for your PSP and country complexity = US$96.3M recoverable.

What the business case rests on

  • A measured baseline before any change is made
  • Recommendations scored by expected business impact and confidence
  • Realised impact reported in basis points and recovered value
  • Cost and productivity effects counted alongside revenue

A basis point of approval rate is not a payments metric.It is an earnings metric.
