CdDPF v1

Data Practitioner Foundation Course

One day workshop with eLearning

New regulations are forcing financial firms to change the way they manage their data. Concurrently cyclical business pressures for product innovation, client retention, cost reduction, managing risk and BAU will force additional changes to the way firms manage their data as an asset.

Data lies at the heart. So a holistic programme that helps you make sense of broader business data needs is vital. Failure to understand data interdependencies will cause unnecessary major rework, program slippage and extensive cost.

Our Regulatory Data Management Workshop will:

  • Explain key Trading, Risk, Financial Crime and Structural reform objectives. 
  • List major regulations by category, region and timeline. 
  • Provide an enterprise wide Regulatory Data Model as an analytical framework enabling you to digest regulation in a meaningful way. 
  • Describe how to use the framework to analyse impact on systems/data and write a roadmap for G20 and beyond. 
  • Provide insights into the G20 implementation process enabling you to build realistic timelines avoiding unnecessary spend on external reports and internal reviews.
  • Provide templates for ‘Fit and Proper’ data architecture necessary for G20 compliance and beyond.

Business benefits will include:

  • Consistent message, language and methodology delivered across divisional groups
  • Alignment of key business and data management roadmaps
  • Ensuring expectations are met in the right way
  • Help to prevent expensive re-works through adherence to best practice
  • Articulate cogent plans to your management
  • Leverage a community of expert practitioners to share best practices and insights
  • Obtain greater levels of productivity and loyalty from existing employees
