Discussion Group 2B: Overcoming Key Data Challenges in Smaller Organisations, Challengers & Fintech

Smaller or newer FSIs often don’t have an in-depth historical view of the customer or markets they operate in, so a data acquisition and governance strategy needs to be built from the ground up.

When investing in turnkey data projects, it’s essential that you select and invest in the right technologies that meet current and future business growth strategies. This is offers exciting opportunities when unencumbered by huge legacy architecture and data issues.

This session will explore how agile FSIs are optimising their data acquisition and governance to enhance availability, transparency, efficiency and insights.

Panel Discussion: Data & Analytics for Regulatory and Risk Endeavours

The demands of specific regulations vary substantially by FSI sector, geography and function. This session will explore how regulatory and risk projects with strong data elements are being prioritised and being viewed as a value-add, as well sharing where data strategies are still driven by regulation at a time when budgets for projects can be scarce. We’ll look at some specific examples, where models are being used for both internal risk management and regulatory reporting.

Panel Discussion: Roadmaps for Legacy Data and Systems Integration to Drive Competitive Advantages

Legacy data and systems are a huge challenge for many larger, mature or more complex financial services organisations. Legacy data also offers the opportunities to drive significant competitive advantages of substantial data repositories, more customers and a longer history for personalisation and digitisation projects.

This panel will explore how organisations are updating their systems and integrating data/analytics projects into existing systems. We’ll discuss roadmaps for legacy systems and where the gaps lie, as well as how to work within the boundaries of these systems to modernise reporting and insights. Or… should we just launch new challenger banks and Fintech businesses from scratch?
