Assessment 2: ACME_BANKJUNE2013

(100 Marks; Contributes to 50% of the overall assessments)

Description

In this assignment, students will explore foundational concepts in SAS Visual Analytics. ACME Bank is a fictitious bank that operates throughout the USA.

This data set contains information on the bank’s financial condition, its customers and the nature of its operations.

Goal

The board of Acme Bank has sought your analytical skills to derive insights from their vast pool of transactional data collected over the last four years.

You will be required to develop a professionally presentable consulting report. You might use a multitude of factors of the dataset to have a better understanding and visualization of the data through an interactive report (interactivity implies the use of filters, buttons, etc…).

The interactive report should help understanding:

•    the evolution of the bank’s business over the last four years

•    a forecast of the bank’s performance

•    the areas of the bank’s operations that are most profitable by:

•     business unit/line

•     industry type

•     geography

•     product

•    the areas of risk and concern for the Bank

•    which Bank operations are unviable (if any) and why?

Submit a written consulting report, as well as a presentation report to show its usability. The presentation should not exceed five (5) minutes in duration.

Note: In case, you identify any outliers they can be removed from further analysis. You are required to justify and explain the process and list the cases being eliminated.
