8:45 Looking At The Future Of Technology In The World, In Banking & In Your Job: What Is Next?
Prof Dave Cliff, Department of Computer Science, University of Bristol

For more than 20 years, Dave's research work has concentrated on complex adaptive systems, and for more than 15 years he has specialized in applying his research to market systems. His research became widely known when he invented an autonomous adaptive algorithmic trading system that learned from its experience in the marketplace, and released the algorithm as open-source in 1997; in 2001 Dave's algorithm was shown by IBM researchers to consistently beat human traders in experimental versions of financial-market auction systems, something that resulted in worldwide media coverage, and that helped to establish academic research in automated trading. Join this keynote address to hear which next big technological invention is going to change your world.

John Bottega, Vice President, Chief Data Officer, Federal Reserve Bank of New York

The world’s financial regulators and countries governments are busy thinking about separating retail and investment banking, setting higher equity requirements, and forcing firms to devise resolution plans so they can dismantle them when they fail.

9:45 New Ideas For Measuring Data Quality: Using Different Criteria For Different Users
Sue Baldwin, Global Head of Vendor Management, JP Morgan
Some need it fast, some need it 100% accurate and some need it very short and concise. In fact data quality turns out to be far from a simple concept. As your internal customers become more demanding, both in terms of their requirements as well speed of delivery, you need to adapt quickly. All data is not good for all users. Join this presentation to hear how they manage the change in data requirement at JP Morgan. Find out what strategies can be adopted to measure data quality and how this correlates with the real user requirements. Hear from Sue Baldwin, who will give you her views on: • Building strategies for data requirement audits• Measuring quality from the user view point• Working with vendors to provide your users with exactly what they need, rather than what is being offered to everyone else• Improving data quality – what are they key criteria?• Building a flexible and diverse data quality strategy to be able to adapt to new requirements and customer needs

10.45 Latent Risk in Low-Risk Entities
Steven Goldstein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Alacra
Alacra recently conducted research into how banks risk-rank customers and counterparties during the on-boarding/KYC process, and how those entities are re-visited over time. While much ongoing attention is paid to the relatively low number of high-risk entities, higher volumes of medium and low-risk entities are, for a variety of reasons, often ignored. Applying a sub-optimal process with limited resources to a large number of accounts is a recipe for risk-based disaster– financial, legal, regulatory or reputational. Steve Goldstein, co-founder and CEO of Alacra, a pioneer in data alignment, concordance, and risk alerting, will discuss insights gathered from surveying the on-boarding and re-screening processes of many global top-tier financial institutions.

11.15 Confronting The Complexities Of Financial Regulation With A Customer Centric Approach; Applying IPL’s Master Data Management And Data Governance Process
Chis Bradley, Business Consulting Director , IPL
Martin Campbell, Information Architect, National Australia Group (Clydesdale Bank)
Master Data Management (MDM) and Data Governance are critical elements in the future planning for UK Financial Services regulation such as Basel II, Anti-Money Laundering and Mifid, amongst others. The challenges faced by Clydesdale Bank, part of the National Australia Group (NAG), in how to structure their data frameworks and processes are not unique, but their approach to resolving them was. With a customer centric move towards legislation compliance, NAG have enacted a ten year Information Management roadmap to create accurate, reliable and sustainable information within a secure, ‘single source of truth’ data environment. In doing so they have identified a number of opportunities to improve customer service approaches and comply with stringent UK regulation through the use of MDM and Data Governance with the help of IPL.

John Visti Madsen, Independent Market Data Consultant,
David Berry, IPUG Executive, IPUG
Deborah McAdams, Data Sourcing, UBS Global Asset Management
Sue Baldwin, Global Head of Vendor Management, JP Morgan
Every data manager and vendor manager likes to discus their relationship with the vendors, often blaming them for overcharging, not providing a good deal and not offering enough to the customer.
