Overview
The Data Foundation a conversation on our newest research report, “Implementing the FDTA: From Data Sharing to Meaning Sharing,” with authors Dean Ritz, Senior Research Fellow at the Data Foundation, and Timothy Randle, Senior Advisory Consultant, on Tuesday, October 3, 2023.
The Financial Data Transparency Act (FDTA) amends securities and banking laws to make the information already reported to financial regulators electronically searchable and to further enable the development of regulatory technologies and artificial intelligence applications. The ultimate goal is to harmonize reporting requirements, reduce the private sector’s regulatory compliance burden, and enhance transparency and accountability.
Implementing the FDTA: From Data Sharing to Meaning Sharing expands on the law’s text, offers frameworks for understanding data standardization efforts, and examines options for developing meaningful financial regulatory information as data.
This paper is a resource for those implementing the Financial Data Transparency Act (FDTA) and for those interested in data modernization, thanks to the efforts of the authors and in partnership with DFIN Solutions and Workiva.
