What is the Fixing the Portfolio Reconciliation Gap That course about?

Every reporting cycle, discrepancies between regional portfolio data sets create a reconciliation gap that requires manual intervention, spreadsheet stitching, and emergency validations. This delays final sign-off, increases operational risk, and undermines confidence in the reporting timeline. The process repeats because there's no documented, repeatable method to align data structures, timing, and ownership before the cycle begins.
