String Matching

Hello PBI Users,

 

I have a situation where i need to match / compare two columns 

 

values would be -

Col 1                                                            

bic-payment-error-attempt-5

Col 2

bic/payment-error-attempt-5-en-US-activity-DECR-241

 

I need a YES result while comparing these things 

 

Can you help what DAX can i use here ??
