Name owners before you buy another catalogue

Clouddatapro
Data governance audits for financial technology.
From Shau Kei Wan we review lineage, ownership, retention, and privileged access on fintech platforms — evidence your partners and compliance leads can act on.
Primary engagement
Data lineage & ownership audit
Most governance gaps start as unnamed stewards and undocumented flows. We map how priority customer and transaction data moves, name accountable owners, and register the gaps that would fail a partner or regulator’s questions.
Typical duration 2–4 weeks. Informational pricing From HK$68,000.

Client evidence
After the findings land
“The lineage map finally gave our bank partners a single answer on who owns customer transaction data — without another slide deck of vague principles.”
“Retention settings and the policy PDF were two different stories. Clouddatapro showed the mismatches with evidence we could remediate in a sprint.”
“Their cross-border transfer brief was short enough for the board and precise enough for engineering. That combination is rare.”
