Data management fits into a picture of broad digital imperatives that the asset management industry must address. The need for better investment outcomes has driven the industry towards digitization for some time, but COVID-19 accelerated the trend. Business continuity and resiliency rapidly became urgent and critical, going from a sensible planning exercise to a means of keeping businesses running day-to-day.
