Description

This IDC PlanScape explores a new data management approach for the financial services industry, transforming how data is managed, governed, and leveraged for strategic decision-making. By treating data as a structured product rather than a byproduct of operations, financial institutions can enhance AI capabilities, improve compliance, and unlock new revenue opportunities. However, the industry must address internal trust issues by establishing cross-departmental data governance, fostering collaboration, and prioritizing transparency in data usage.By implementing these strategies, financial institutions can transform their data landscape, ensuring long-term success in an increasingly data-driven industry."Data management on the back of piecemeal solutions; lack of clear data governance; and issues around data ownership that negatively affect data accessibility, accuracy, and optimization remain critical inhibitors for FSIs to get more value out of their data," said Tom Zink, senior research director, IDC Financial Insights. "The industry needs to rethink data as a strategic asset, make data available to all necessary stakeholders across the enterprise, and invest in timeliness and accuracy. Only then will FSIs see returns on their AI investments, and more importantly, reliable data-driven business outcomes."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
