The panellists will assess drivers of enterprise data management strategies, and how data management can improve internal operations. In addition, they will discuss the strategic, operations, IT, and data quality implications of enterprise data management.

"Firms in Canada and globally are realizing that any underlying problems with core reference data can ripple throughout an enterprise, increasing costs, eroding investor confidence and jeopardizing reputation. Rather than operating with legacy data stored in silos, Canadian firms are proactively centralizing and consolidating data to better manage risk and serve their customers," said Engdahl. "As the global marketplace becomes increasingly complex and competitive, reducing operational risk and increasing operational efficiencies will continue to be top drivers for Canadian firms."
