The Enterprise Data Management Council is a non-profit business forum for financial institutions to address business strategies and practical implementation realities for achieving enterprise-wide control over data content. All financial institutions, regardless of geography, area of focus or industry segment, are invited to apply for membership in the Council, participate in our activities and contribute to the management of the agenda.

| Benefits of Membership |
|
The Board of Directors of the EDM Council views members as “owners” not “customers” of the organization. Your membership dues are used to achieve the following objectives:
Advocacy: The EDM Council is the only global advocate for the advancement of enterprise data management at the executive level. The Council has emerged as the focal point for the financial information industry with sufficient combined influence to be effective as an “agent of change.” By working together, EDM Council members have collectively elevated the importance of managing EDM as a business priority.
Metrics: The EDM Council collects and manufactures data quality and operational metrics to enable members to benchmark performance, establish remediation priorities, and build a composite view of the role of data content as the critical factor of input in support of business workflow.
Research The EDM Council conducts pragmatic research in all areas of EDM to enable members to learn from the hard won experiences of their peers and to avoid continually “reinventing the wheel” on the practical aspects of enterprise data management and implementation.
Relationships: The EDM Council has built an extensive network of contacts in all segments of the data management industry (buy-side, sell-side, asset servicing, data vendors, technology providers, integrators) and facilitates business introductions among participants. Members use the Council to efficiently connect with others for both problem solving and idea generation.
Resources: The EDM Council website is a shared resource in support of member research and communication objectives. The web acts as a repository of presentations, case studies, articles, research reports, and templates for reference as well as a mechanism for collaboration and communication among subject matter experts.
