Decision Makers Turn to Cloud-Based Data Management

Some 59% of senior managers and directors in financial services are using cloud-based data for portfolio management. Additional use cases include risk management, collateral management and internal data marketplaces, according to research commissioned by Alveo and conducted in April among investment managers, asset owners, banks and insurance companies across the UK, US and Asia-Pacific.

With growth in cloud commitment continuing, the research noted that many firms are adopting a range of cloud-based data practices, with 56% carrying out new internal application development using cloud native components and architecture, and 34% rearchitecting existing internal applications.
