Dear Colleague,

Mark your calendar for FIMA 2015. The premier reference data, counterparty risk and data innovation conference is returning to Boston! to how to balance data demands in a constrained budget environment. FIMA 2015 lifts the veil on clearly identifying data requirements and gaining more intelligence from it.

We have a range of issues to tackle this year and we’ll explore the roles of data in the current environment, improving data quality, and extracting the value. Learn how identifying the right individuals can advance your data strategies as the office of the CDO continues evolve. We’ll shed light on how the maturation of technologies can provide greater transparency and ease regulatory burdens.

As an industry, it’s time to ensure our organizations understand that data is a part of the business and the amount of data we’re using is necessary. At FIMA we’ll examine how to take that data and actually leverage and utilize it as an asset.

If you’re like most data management professionals, you are interested in what data is being used internally, what the practitioners are doing and the kind of constraints being faced. Join your peers to discuss the outlook for the industry and what’s down the road 5-10 years from today. Share your insights, skills and experience, and contribute to the development of very specific data management solutions.

Attend FIMA 2015 and you’ll be amongst leading reference data management professionals who will cover topics that are of fundamental importance to your enterprise-wide data management initiatives.

See you in Boston!

Global Head of Financial Services Consulting & Global Account Manager Financial Services eClerx

8:55 Treating Data As An Asset And Managing It Effectively

How do you take data, actually leverage it, and use it as an asset? A few years ago, firms were convinced data was needed because they couldn’t operate without it. Since then, it has become more apparent that data is needed because of regulatory requirement or the business is asking for it. As organizations come to the realization that the data requirements aren’t going away, the need for strategies to leverage data have increased. This session will examine how to take the value of data, that in the past has been perceived almost as a liability, and turn it into an asset. · Transforming the perception of data as a liability · Reinforcing that data is part of the business and

the amount being utilized is necessary · Examining how to take data and use it to

During this session, panelists will address how to strike a balance between manual/sampling-based processes to measure and report on data accuracy vs. the use of automated tools to measure other aspects of quality. · Realizing it takes more than having the right

toolset to deliver but the process behind the quality

· Mitigating issues associated with applying data quality standards and encouraging people to act on them

12:15 Data Governance 2.0 - Moving From Tactical Data Governance To Strategic Data Governance For Competitive Advantage

The traditional approaches to data governance often fail over time because they operate in the manner of law or policy enforcement. Over time, executive management attention wanes and shifts focus, data governance control over the data asset slips. Shifting data governance to a more strategic role providing more guidance than policy enforcement can ensure greater longevity to the function and higher value to the enterprise. An added benefit is that it is easier to implement than traditional Data Governance approaches when done correctly. Plan to attend this session to learn: · Why tactical data governance often loses control

over time · How to move from tactical data governance to

strategic data governance by providing data guidance and direction

· Examining strategic data governance and GRC (governance, risk and compliance)

· Exploiting business architecture to deliver data architecture and better data governance, particularly for master data management & reference data management

· Assessing strategic data governance and competitive advantage - the ‘need for speed’

2:45 Semantic Technology And Financial Standards: Creating Synergy Between Data Analytics And Regulatory Compliance

Financial services companies want to develop new data analytics products and services for their clients.

4:25 FIBO The Next Generation Data Standard For The Financial Industry

The recent financial crisis triggered loud distress calls from the regulatory authorities and the financial industry to get our data house in order by adopting a common financial language. The industry needed a better way to describe financial

instruments, concepts and terminology over what we had previously been doing using conventional approaches. The members of the Enterprise Data Management Council responded by developing the Financial Industry Business Ontology (FIBO). FIBO provides a common language using semantic capabilities to describe financial business concepts in ways that both humans and machines can understand. FIBO will provide the ability to semantically define and process data related to the structure and relationships associated with business entities, equities, securities, derivatives, loans, debt instruments, prices and financial processes. FIBO provides financial industry participants with capabilities to address risk and regulatory obligations (including the BCBS-239 Risk Data Aggregation Principles) as well as to harmonize data in support of internal operations. The underlying structure of FIBO includes foundational data concepts that will help organizations build their own ontologies and better manage the current explosion of data complexity. · Why FIBO is so important to your firm and to

regulators · Understanding how FIBO uses semantic

technology to describe business concepts, especially financial contracts

· Looking closer at how FIBO will be applied on the internet

· Exploring how your organization can use FIBO now

· How your organization can participate in the development of FIBO
