Solution Brief: Risk Management
Web Data Integration for Risk Management
In today’s dynamic business climate, new opportunities can emerge quickly—and so can new risks. To contend with their rapidly changing markets and businesses, organizations need to become more data driven. Today, the web represents a key asset that successful data-driven organizations can leverage to maximize their opportunities for growth—while minimizing their exposure to risk.
The web provides an unprecedented opportunity for global organizations, offering a wealth of information on people, companies and governments. The proliferation of digitization, smartphones, and social media has magnified the need for capturing insights derived by web data. More than ever, web data can offer companies the extra intelligence they need to manage internal and external corporate risks to stay on top of dynamic markets.
