Building a Data Management Foundation Webcast

Since the set-up of the Office of Financial Research was announced in 2010, industry discussions have been focused on how to build a strong data management foundation to prepare for change. It is still not clear how the new data analysis and collection unit and other regulatory changes will impact data requirements, but when the details are announced it might be too late to act. Now is the time to get ready, and one of the first things firms are looking at getting ready for is the introduction of the legal entity identifier.
- What aspects of a data management function should firms look at improving before new standards and regulatory requirements are introduced?
- What is the best place to start when the aim is to build a more robust data management foundation?
- How can improvements made now benefit the business in
coming years?
