Data is central to an asset manager's investment process. An effective data management strategy can help firms uncover new insights, better serve emerging stakeholder requirements, and bring new products to market faster.

But firms face several data related challenges. The sheer volume of data can be overwhelming. Fragmented, siloed data makes it difficult to maintain an enterprise-wide, single source of truth. Aggregating and reconciling data from multiple sources is time-consuming and complex, hindering investment decision-making and increasing operational costs.

Brian Allis, SVP, Global Client Management, UK Investment Services, Jochen Kühn, SVP and Head of Coverage, Central and Northern Europe, and Simon Brown, SVP and Head of Alpha Platform Sales, EMEA sat down with Frank Smietana, Head of Thought Leadership at State Street Alpha to discuss how asset managers are rethinking their operating models to address data management challenges and support new opportunities during a of time of rapid and intense change across the industry.
