13:50 Leveraging Data Standards to Improve Data Quality

Being able to access high quality reference data is of significant importance to the financial industry not least in the context of ever evolving regulatory requirements. However views on what constitutes high quality can differ from one user to the other and is subject to interpretation. Developing and applying data standards can help to overcome these hurdles and can be used to facilitate consistency in interpreting the meaning of data.
SIX Financial Information has developed a prototype internally demonstrating the benefits of applying data standards to large volumes of reference data, which can also be measured through a set of corresponding KPIs. Further analysis of any inconsistencies with the standard can be used to define targeted measures to improve data quality in a sustainable way.
