What’s next for funds: Managing data – a necessity and an opportunity

Data has been called “the new oil”. But standardisation of fund data remains a challenge.

Part 1: Setting standards

Digital technology has led to enormous growth in the creation and storage of data. But in the funds world, difficulties concerning standardisation threaten to limit the exploitation of this resource. A survey by Funds Europe and Clearstream assessed the issues.

Part 2: The end investor

Fund-related information given by asset managers to their distributors and investors is only one type of fund industry data.

Part 3: Partners

Clearly, regulation is a big influence on fund companies’ attitudes towards data. This observation was confirmed when we asked respondents which was the main factor driving the acquisition of distribution-related data by fund managers.
