Data Collection Service
A single feed for all your data and documents to be collected
Overview
Distributors are responsible for providing fund information via their website or their platforms, to enable investments either directly to end investors or via sub-distributors. This is driven by regulatory requirements (e.g. UCITS KIID, prospectus, target market) as well as marketing purposes and the need to correctly advise investors (e.g. static data, fund factsheet). Providing accurate information across every fund that Distributors make available is often a challenge and one that tends to grow exponentially – and consume resources – with scale.

Achieving 100% coverage whilst keeping costs under control can be challenging

Complex data sourcing
Most Distributors reach out to different vendors to cover all ISINs and end up subscribing to and managing different feeds from different sources

Complicated IT infrastructure
To manage many sources and allow for different transmissions methods in, often in different formats

Inefficient use of resources
With thousands of static fields, name differently by different provider, the task to normalize that data is huge

Poor data quality
Issues arise when inaccurate data and documents are published, with fund marketing an regulatory compliance
