4:15 – 4:50 p.m.	Data Cost Optimization Strategies – can sell side experiences be applied to buy side challenges? Large sell side firms have long had complex data vendor relationships and myriad tools and processes have emerged to streamline the associated cost and compliance efforts. More recently and in the face of fee compression and increased complexity, more and more buy side firms have begun to actively engage on this import topic. Our panel of buy and sell side data experts will examine how this space has changed and which of these cost optimisation processes and tools can be applied across industry lines. Til Rosar, Partner, Financial Services, Oliver Wyman (Moderator) Brian Stephens, Chief Information Officer, MarketsIO Daniel Kennedy, Head of Sales – Asia Pacific, Gresham Ashutosh Vispute, Enterprise Data Solutions – Specialist Sales, Factset
4:50 – 5:25 p.m.	Satisfying the Evolving Demands of Retail Traders The pandemic saw a sharp increase in retail participation across global markets with radical changes in market access mechanisms and in the profile and behavior of retail investors. Mobile UX, 5×24 markets, personalized data products and education are just a few of the expectations these new digital natives have from their trading platforms. Our expert panel will explain and explore the most significant of these trends and provide some insights on how this space is changing. Donald Day, COO, VDX (Moderator) Kenichi Hashimoto, Managing Director, Global Equity Sales, Cantor Fitzgerald (Hong Kong) Capital Markets Shuya Shan, APAC Sales & Business Development Lead, Equities Secondary Markets, London Stock Exchange plc, LSEG John Brownridge, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited
5:25 – 6:00 p.m.	Financial Symbology- Introducing the FIGI As firms implement increasingly diverse data sourcing strategies, the question of standardized instrument symbology quickly raises its head. In parallel major market regulations (e.g. US FDTA) are working to enhance financial transparency, through open data standards for entity identification (e.g. the LEI) and instrument identification (e.g. the FIGI) Our guest speaker will explore the unique challenges of instrument identification in a modernized regulatory landscape and highlight how open standards like FIGI help both regulators and investors address these challenges effectively.
