AI is transforming every part of the fund management ecosystem - from investment decisions to operational efficiency. But the foundation of every AI breakthrough is data.   That’s why Richard Itri, CIO at ECI, is taking the stage at MFA Ops: Data, Tech & AI 2025 to explore how firms can build data strategies that are scalable, resilient and ready for the future.   Rich will highlight emerging trends in alternative data, integration challenges, and governance best practices - helping firms prepare for the next wave of innovation.   We can’t wait to connect with peers and leaders at this must-attend event in New York!   #FutureofFinance #DataDriven #MFAOps2025

If your business had a day of unexpected downtime, what would the impact be? How would it affect your cash flow, people, resources and investors? And what if that disruption lasted a week or longer? At ECI, we strongly recommend your Business Continuity Plan (BCP) includes Business Impact Analysis. In our new e-book on BCP writing, we encourage you to consider your business in the event of disaster and: * Prioritize recovery (and in which areas of the business) * Quantify the importance of various business components * Make appropriate fund allocation to cover you. Doing it now, while problems are hypothetical, means you will move swiftly, methodically and successfully when disaster strikes. Saving you regulatory and reputational damage – and potentially a lot of money. Business Impact Analysis is Step 3 of our seven clear steps.

Our CIO Richard Itri believes that leadership isn’t just about strategy – it’s about execution, ownership and timing.   In an ROI video interview, he outlines his decision-making model:   ●     Come from a good place. ●     Don’t delay – inaction creates risk. ●     Build a team that can deliver.   Tech moves fast. Businesses need to move faster. And CIOs? They need to do both – while keeping people at the centre.
