When a Dutch bank with global trading operations noticed their market data workstation costs spiralling upward, they brought in TCAM to find out why. Digging into the bank's full estate of Bloomberg terminals and LSEG Workspaces, we uncovered what was quietly draining the budget: a substantial pool of unused licences, and widespread over-entitlement of real-time exchange data across their workstation fleet.
The fix was clear once the picture was complete. By rightsizing entitlements and eliminating redundant licences, TCAM delivered a 17% reduction in global market data workstation costs — a material saving across a complex, multi-regional environment.
When one of Europe's leading exchanges launched a formal audit, the stakes were high — and the initial findings even higher. Appointed as the internal process lead and primary liaison to the auditor, TCAM didn't just manage the process; we challenged it. By rigorously scrutinising the exchange's own data policies and contesting the methodology behind their findings, we turned a significant preliminary claim into a near-non-issue — securing a 95% reduction in the amount originally demanded.
