The award recognizes visionary IBM business partners who innovatively use IBM Information Management Software to develop solutions that transform how customers do business. Enterprise Hub, powered by IBM InfoSphere Software, accelerates MDM time to value in the financial services industry through capabilities that enable the integration, management, and distribution of securities data, client and counterparty data, and hierarchies and linkage data.
