Build the Foundation First: 

Why Data Readiness Determines Transformation Success

 

Technology transformation is about more than implementing a new platform. For investment managers, lasting success requires a strong data foundation, clear governance, and an operating model designed to support both today's needs and tomorrow's opportunities.

Join Alex Yarbrough, Director and Head of Investment Operations Consulting at Cutter Associates, and Ali Stewart CFA, VP of Product Strategy at Ridgeline, for a discussion on how a data-first approach to technology transformation can help firms reduce operational complexity, improve decision making, and build a more adaptable business.

Date: Thursday, November 5th

Time: 11 AM PT | 2 PM ET

What We’ll Cover: 

  • Governance Before Technology: Why migration starts with understanding your data landscape, establishing clear ownership, and aligning teams around a common operating model, not simply selecting a new platform

  • Real-Time Data as an Operational Advantage: Why real-time access to trusted data requires more than technology alone. We'll explore how a unified data foundation connects teams, workflows, and investment processes, eliminating traditional silos and enabling firms to make faster, more informed decisions with greater confidence.

  • Measuring What Actually Changed: Why transformation success goes beyond an on-time go-live. Explore how firms can measure lasting business outcomes, from fewer reconciliations and manual processes to greater flexibility in supporting new asset classes or regulations.
