Jon leads the advisory consulting practice at Trillium Software where he is responsible for the delivery of best practice advice and guidance to Trillium’s many international clients. He has over 16 years’ experience in information management, data quality management, data governance and data analysis, gained through working for both global consultancies and software vendors across a variety of international Financial Services clients.
Over the last 5 years, Jon has advised senior business officers at a number of global financial services firms in support of Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) initiatives within credit risk. Having overseen a number of regulatory compliance engagements linked to Basel II, Solvency II, FSCS (faster payout) and credit risk data assurance, Jon has developed a detailed understanding of the practical challenges inherent in assessing complex data from disparate systems. A critical deliverable from these initiatives is a documented ‘corporate action plan’ that engages both business and technical teams in a consistent joint approach. The objective being to addresses regulatory requirements for robust systems that validate “accuracy” and “consistency” of data, processes and risk components – including on-going measurement and monitoring actions.
Most recently Jon has been working with financial clients to assess the data requirements and challenges associated with FATCA compliance.

15:40 Just the facts - How fact-based analysis can drive data governance, culture change and support BCBS 239 compliance

With BCBS 239 looming, one-third of recently surveyed banks said they would not meet the 2016 deadline. Regulators are expecting financial institutions to have a robust data governance process in place as part of their risk management framework. Forward-thinking firms will develop sustainable processes to not only meet the regulators’ requirements but also to drive tangible business benefits including reductions in cost, improvements in customer service, and improved business process efficiencies.
In this session you will learn :

• The importance of using a fact-based analytical approach to drive data governance

• How to overcome the challenges associated with establishing the necessary culture change

• Tactics to accelerate business buy-in and foster collaboration between business silos

Delegates will discover that deploying an effective data governance program is not as simple as just defining policies and procedures; it will only succeed with business engagement and collaboration.
