This week's guest is Doug Eisenstein, an exceptionally clear and content-rich communicator. He fills us in on the complexity of engineering a coherent source of truth for financial models, integrating hundreds of data sources.
Topics covered in the episode include:
• A breakdown of the primary financial sectors and departments
• Why data source integration for finance is wildly complicated
• Specific data engineering approaches that resolve these issues including entity resolution, knowledge graph mapping and tri-temporality.
20 years ago, Doug founded the consulting firm, Advanti and they have since become a critical provider of solutions to complex data engineering problems faced by some of the world's largest banks and asset managers including Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, Citibank and State Street.
