Upcoming Webinar: The Data-First Enterprise: Fuelling Modernisation in Capital Markets
7 October 2025
10:00am ET | 3:00pm London | 4:00pm CET
Duration: 50 Minutes
In the face of relentless pressure for speed, cost efficiency, and mandates like T+1 settlement, financial institutions know their biggest risk isn’t a market crash – it’s bad data. When data is fragmented or untrusted, every investment in technology, from hybrid cloud infrastructure to AI, stumbles.
CDOs must move their company peers beyond the myth of data as just another IT function. They must position data as the strategic lynchpin for driving modernisation and gaining a competitive edge. Join a panel of data experts from capital markets as they share their roadmap for managing data to gain stakeholder buy-in and accelerate business outcomes.
Webinar attendees will gain actionable insights into:
- The ROI of Trust: What business outcomes (speed, cost, risk, compliance) are most improved by a strong data foundation, and how to quantify that ROI to secure executive buy-in.
- A Modern Operating Model: How to balance centralised standards with federated ownership, ensuring data flows across platforms and teams without security becoming a blocker.
- AI-Ready Data in Practice: The essential prerequisites for preparing your data to be “AI-ready,” and how to de-risk your AI projects from day one.
- Tangible Wins: The most effective 90-day, high-visibility wins that prove value, build momentum, and secure funding for your broader data strategy.
Why Attend: This session is for leaders who need to prove that their data management investments are not just a cost centre but the engine of innovation and revenue. We will provide a clear playbook for achieving modernisation, improving infrastructure resilience, and building a data-first culture that is a source of true competitive advantage.
