  Taxonomy Data Support

Challenges
  • Disparity in the client hierarchy structure represented in multiple systems across locations
  • Need to identify duplicates in the existing hierarchies and mitigate risk associated with duplicate credit lines
  • Keeping database current and up-to-date with recent market events

Solution
  • Perform reconciliation within the golden source of client database to identify duplicate account setups across systems
  • Review of duplicate accounts to retain only genuine client account in the system
  • In-house algorithms capable of identifying acronyms and short-hands to recognize potential duplicates within the static database
  • Verify and update accuracy of information by searching online data sources such as SEC filings, EIN Finder, and Company websites
  • Update systems and hierarchy structures based on recent corporate events
  • Classify entities & cross reference IDs with parent / group names to ensure that hierarchies are adequately represented in all relevant systems
  • Data crawlers and parsers implemented to extract data from external sources / alert emails in Outlook

Benefits
  • Accurate counterparty hierarchy results in the reduction of counterparty risk
  • Cleaner data leads to efficiency gains and creates resource capacity
