PBI Archon

Creating consistency across fragmented investment data

Investment firms often operate across multiple administrators, brokers, OMS/PMS platforms, market data providers and internal systems each with different identifiers, formats and data standards. This creates duplication, reconciliation challenges and operational risk.

PBI Archon addresses this by creating a centralized Security Master layer across the organization:

Consolidates security and reference data from multiple sources
Standardizes terms, identifiers and instrument attributes
Governs changes, amendments and corporate actions
Distributes trusted data consistently across workflows and systems

The result is a scalable, traceable and governed data foundation for investment operations.

From fragmented reference data to a governed security master

Security and reference data is sourced from administrators, market data providers, brokers, internal systems and extracted document workflows.

Normalize

Validate

Rules-based controls verify accuracy, completeness and consistency across data sources.

Govern
