AIM Software and Interactive Data launch 5th edition of Global Reference Data Survey

AIM Software announced today the launch of its fifth international reference data management survey. The financial industry continues to struggle with new regulations, such as MiFID (Markets in Financial Instruments Directive). AIM Software's study is designed to provide insights into the trends, challenges and planned investments for reference data automation and risk management. The survey is sponsored by Interactive Data (Europe) Ltd, part of Interactive Data Corporation (NYSE: IDC).

This year’s edition will examine changes and advances between 2008 and the previous years. Data and risk managers are invited to participate by completing a 5 minute online questionnaire at: http://www.aimsoftware.com/dmstudy2008.

The 2008 survey intends to observe how regulations and market liberalization influence the global financial markets. The final results of the AIM Global Reference Data Management Survey 2008 will be available by the end of the year 2008. Participants benefit from a free, comprehensive benchmarking to the rest of the market, country-specific drill-downs and charts.
