Focusing On The Operational, Risk And Business Issues Surrounding Reference Data Management

FIMA represents a singular point where the underlying symptoms that contributed to the failure of the financial system meet – transparency, timeliness, and comprehensiveness of data.

In the wake and recovery from the credit crises, one thing is certain: financial institutions must get away from the complacency and lack of transparency of recent years and change their approach to managing risk.As you know, the crux of the issue is data. In order to better manage and reduce risk, financial institutions will need to improve the quality of their data, and improve the tools and processes that they use to manage it. One place for financial institutions to start is FIMA 2010. FIMA focuses on the operational, risk and business issues surrounding reference data management. Attend the event, and you'll have access to the brains of over 40 market leaders - as they deliver case studies, participate on panels, and engage audience members during the interactive roundtables.

You'll walk-away with usable strategies to better manage critical functions such as:

* Reference data integration
* Establishing data quality metrics
* Legal entity exposure
* Regulatory restructuring, compliance and reporting
* Emerging market, outsourcing and off-shoring opportunities
* Data governance modeling
* Metadata management
