Addressing market-wide data challenges together
For the few who may not be familiar with the International Securities Services Association (ISSA), it is a Swiss-domiciled association supporting the securities services industry. Our members include CSDs, custodians, technology companies, and other firms actively involved in all aspects of the securities services value chain.
ISSA looks to change the industry through our Working Groups by positively developing and delivering forward-looking solutions. One key area of focus for ISSA's Asset Servicing Working Group during 2022 has been the topic of data sourcing.
Seen by many ISSA members as an area that would benefit from change, ISSA is delighted to collaborate with S&P Global Market Intelligence and the ValueExchange on this important corporate actions data survey.
Thank you to all of you – both at ISSA and the other partners – who contributed to completing this survey. You are providing our Asset Servicing Working Group with key information that will be needed to address the challenges in the data sourcing space.
