Entity Data Management Handbook

We wrote a foreword on the importance of entity identification for 2017's downloadable Entity Data Management Handbook. The handbook examines the role entity data plays in the smooth running of financial institutions and capital markets, the challenges of attaining high quality data, and various aspects, approaches and technologies involved in managing entity data. Our foreword also examines the OFAC and EU "50% rule", for which we now offer a "sanctioned by extension service".
