Overview
EDM is S&P Global Market Intelligence’s flagship enterprise data management platform/solution. It is used by over 200 clients on both sides of the industry to help them make better use of their data and streamline their operations by pulling together disparate data types from multiple sources across the business into a central hub. This traceable and validated data is available to users across the business and is complemented by the firm’s Data Dictionary, providing users with a catalogue of available data.
A firm’s data is one of its most valuable assets. To fully harness its value, data must be able to flow seamlessly and smartly through an organization taking the complexities of different data sets into consideration. Collecting, validating, and centralizing those data sets are essential processes for the flow and transformation of data. Our solution is enriched with some of the world’s most comprehensive data sets, enabling institutions to remove silos, solve for complex data management challenges and create a data landscape for confident decision-making
