Abstract
This Financial Insights report looks at the business need, challenges and
opportunities, leading IT solutions, and winning business scenarios capital
markets firms need to consider when dealing with unstructured data. The focus
is on the technologies and approaches that unlock the most business value.
Industry estimates for the amount of unstructured data within an organization
is 80% of all information and this figure is expected to grow. This means
capital markets firms need to understand the tools and techniques that will be
required to add structure to unstructured content to improve search, discovery,
and data management.
According to Sean O' Dowd, senior analyst for Global Capital Markets at
Financial Insights, "Capital markets firms taking advantage of newer
unstructured analytics solutions can help validate investment research, capture
market moving news earlier, assess current business strategy impacts, and
establish patterns that aid in predictive modeling. Too often the opportunities
from utilizing unstructured data are unrealized by capital markets firms."
