The webinar will discuss the key findings from recent global and Japanese RIMES Buy-Side Surveys, which uncovers the data management challenges asset managers face, as well as the technology and solutions being explored to overcome them. The demand for high quality data, more extensive coverage, a faster time-to-market and more demanding operational efficiencies is to be contrasted against more challenging market conditions, made worse by the COVID-19 situation. Diarmuid O’Donovan will also share his insights, as an ex-practitioner, to add a practical dimension of leading such transformational business changes in this sharing session.
