New client further grows IHS Markit’s share of Swiss data management
market
LONDON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–IHS
Markit (Nasdaq: INFO), a world leader in critical information,
analytics and solutions, today announced that Union
Bancaire Privée (UBP), one of Switzerland’s leading private banks,
has selected its Enterprise
Data Management (EDM) solution following a competitive vendor review
process. EDM will run within UBP’s new front to back office system to
deliver consistent, reconciled and cleansed data to the business and
will act as the security master across its private banking and asset
management arms.
“We decided to implement EDM as part of a strategic review of our
technology infrastructure,” said Laurent Nicolaï de Gorhez, UBP Chief
Operating Officer Asset Management. “The flexibility and strong
reputation of EDM were important factors for us in the decision-making
process. While the initial phases of the project will focus on data
quality and security master, we will be able to extend EDM to other use
cases, such as data governance, in the future.”
“Working with UBP brings our Swiss EDM client count to ten and
reinforces our position as a leader for data management solutions in
this market,” said Andrew
Eisen, global head of EDM and thinkFolio at IHS Markit. “As UBP
embarks on its new technology program, the EDM platform will interface
with the firm’s investment management platform to ensure reconciliation
and distribution of clean data to downstream systems.”
