Summary
One of the most persistent challenges across all financial segments is disconnected systems. Inconsistent naming, and manual linking undermine analytics, increase operational risk, and slow decision-making.
This 60-minute webinar will explore how enterprises can move beyond traditional fuzzy matching by combining persistent identifier infrastructure with AI-driven entity resolution to reliably link entities, securities, and instruments across systems and regions.
What we’ll cover
- Why rules-based and fuzzy matching break down as data volume, complexity, and change accelerate
- How cross-reference architecture creates a stable identifier spine, and how AI automates and validates entity linking with confidence and transparency
- How our models adapt across companies, securities, people, and assets, and deliver a 15–30% uplift in matched records with significantly less manual intervention
Why it matters
- 81% of IT leaders say data silos hinder digital transformation
- 75% of organizations struggle to integrate insights across systems
- 87% of data scientists spend more time cleaning data than building model
