Upcoming Webinar: Streamlining trading and investment processes with data standards and identifiers
3 June 2025
10:00am ET | 3:00pm London | 4:00pm CET
Duration: 50 Minutes
Financial institutions are integrating not only greater volumes of data for use across their organisation but also more varieties of data. As well, that data is being applied to more use cases than ever before, especially regulatory compliance and ESG integration.
Due to this increased complexity of institutions’ data needs, however, information often arrives into their systems incomplete, unstructured, missing metadata and lacking in quality. Additionally, the absence of a common identification framework means that asset and instrument information may be ingested separately from that of issuers.
As the criticality of this information increases and with little sign yet of a globally recognised data standardisation framework emerging, it’s more important than ever that individual organisations have the data management tools in place to bring order to this chaos.
In this webinar, we have gathered a panel of experts to discuss how overcoming these obstacles can improve enterprise-wide operations.
Topics discussed will include:
- The challenges brought about by a lack of common data standards
- The variety of identifiers on the market, how they work and whether they will come together in a single framework
- The importance of having standardised data
- Best practices for overcoming associated challenges
