By tapping NeoXam’s DataHub, we will be able to increase the speed in which we manage immense quantities of market data through automation while driving productivity improvements and mitigating operational risk, all in a cost-effective way.”

NeoXam DataHub is a customisable software solution for centralised data management that provides an easy to govern and transparent way to manage the data supply chain for risk management.

Not only is the consolidation of this important, but market data costs could soon spiral out of control if there isn’t an optimised process in place. We are working with United Overseas Bank Group in Singapore to ensure that FRTB compliance is a smooth and cost-effective process. Our data centric approach to market data management enables swift implementation of a United Overseas Bank Group golden copy of data and a governance model that will keep the bank one step ahead of the regulatory curve.”
