Data, Data Everywhere... But Not a Drop of Insight

Like the sailor in Coleridge’s “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner,” who is surrounded by salt water that he cannot drink, many financial services professionals contend with similar challenges: data is all around them, but it’s not doing them much good. Firms need to drink deeply from their data, developing greater expertise not only at data discovery, but also at data valuation. Because at this point, data is the only true source of competitive differentiation.

- 53% of financial firms say better use of data has helped them assure customers’ data security and privacy.
- 67% of financial services organizations say better use of data has increased revenue.
- Globally, the highest tier of data-driven organizations are more than 2x likelier to beat their customer retention targets.
- Across the board, top-tier data organizations attribute 12.5% of their gross profit to better data use.
