New SimCorp article explores what constitutes successful and effective EDM strategies for asset managers

Report this content

SimCorp, a leading provider of investment management solutions and services for the global financial services industry, has released a new article by Jeremy Hurwitz, Principal & Founder, and Brian Lollar, Senior Consultant of InvestTech Systems Consulting titled, “Is data management supporting or hindering your firm’s growth?” The article discusses how establishing an effective EDM strategy, which includes disciplined data governance and data quality models, is key to navigating today’s complexities of EDM technology and exploding data demands. 

“Today’s asset management firms are being challenged to cope with tightening margins, increased data costs, heightened regulatory scrutiny, and pressure to support a wider variety of products and investment types while at the same time, outperforming the markets,” said Hurwitz. “A central component to all of these challenges is a firm’s data.”   

The piece cites findings from a recent SimCorp study, which found that data quality and management are frequently seen as inhibitors to growth and obstacles to solving operational bottlenecks.
