11:10 Point/Counterpoint | Adopting and Implementing Best Practices for Data Management

If you’re here, the chances are, you’re bought into data management, but you might have some convincing ahead. What’s stopping you from mainstreaming and implementing data governance?

Since 2005, the EDM Council has been deeply involved supporting data management organizations across the finance industry. In this point/counterpoint, find out how to overcome common roadblocks, including:
• Organizational red tape
• Becoming a priority for executive leadership
• Implementation challenges

13:30 Collaboration Conversation | The FIBO Value Chain, Can This Safeguard the Economy Against the Next Crash?

The FIBO early adopter program kicked off in July 2016 and it’s become clear that the standards of FIBO will help against the problems of silos within silos. Financial institutions need to be able to curate, link and aggregate data to see risks in portfolios, counterparties and systemic risks across the financial system. FIBO can help to address a number of items required by BCBS 239 in terms of understanding data and it has global reach beyond US regulations. Recent developments in FIBO both domestically and globally are looking promising to further safeguard the investment environment.
Find out:
• Latest lessons learned in FIBO adoption and integration
• How FIBO and Blockchain can solve the problem of systemic risk in finance
• Successes and outcomes of proof of concepts
