CONWAY, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Acxiom, the customer intelligence company whose data-driven solutions create business growth by enabling better customer experiences, today announced a new partnership with Demyst, the leading external data marketplace for financial institutions. This data solution will allow financial services companies to easily find and evaluate data from hundreds of high-quality data sources to improve marketing effectiveness, reduce fraud and improve data governance and compliance.
This partnership combines Acxiom’s fifty years of expertise in ethical data use and customer data management with Demyst’s long history of bringing high value emerging data sources to leading financial institutions. The result is a customer data management platform that allows Acxiom financial services clients to accelerate their data discovery, analytics and mobilization efforts across the ecosystem of emerging data use cases throughout the entire customer lifecycle, without the costs and integration requirements associated with onboarding new data suppliers.
“Financial services institutions are facing major changes with today’s economic climate and rapid digitization due to the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Tate Olinghouse, president of financial services at Acxiom. “External data growth is fueling new client outcomes. However, significant friction remains for these institutions to find, test and deploy new third-party data sources without extra costs, engineering builds and procurement challenges required to onboard new vendors.
