Remember the financial crisis behind the Great Recession? A big part of what went wrong was poor risk data management. Regulators didn't see the systemic risk building up because they couldn't track all the contractual obligations between firms. We can't let that happen again. Banks today need to stay ahead of the curve with legal data management. Legal Data, Digital Assets and Smart Contracts for Capital Markets gives you exactly what you need to make that happen.

Here's what you'll get with this book:

- A clear picture of how current legal data practices

- The systems, structures, and strategies you need to manage risk effectively and make the most of your business opportunities

- A deep dive into regulations around risk aggregation, netting, collateral enforceability, and more

- Practical advice on legal data technology, systems, and how to handle migration

- If you're working in the capital market space, you really need to get a solid handle on managing it.

The text breaks down what legal data means for financial institutions and shows how banks can use it to run their business better and keep risk under control. This book is perfect for anyone in IT, project management, or data governance. It walks you through what's working now, what should be working, and how to get there. Let's be honest—a lot of banks are dealing with the same headaches when it comes to legal data management. This a clear roadmap for the processes, systems, and governance you need is going to make your life a lot easier.

At the end of the day, the legal contracts between firms contain serious obligations that keep financial markets running. If you're not treating those terms as valuable data assets, you're leaving yourself exposed to unnecessary risk and missing out on business opportunities. Legal Data, Digital Assets and Smart Contracts for Capital Markets gives you the critical information you need plus actionable steps to put it all into practice.
