An enterprise software solution that creates a unified, linkable data architecture by mapping, cross-referencing, and connecting an organization's disparate internal data with S&P Global Market Intelligence's extensive proprietary content.

Try it out

ID-Architect is a sophisticated data integration and master data management (MDM) platform designed for large enterprises. It specializes in resolving entity data by linking a company's siloed internal information—such as client, counterparty, or supplier records—to S&P Global's authoritative datasets. This process creates a 'golden record' or single source of truth for each entity, enriched with S&P's vast intelligence on corporate structures, financials, and identifiers. The primary users are financial institutions, large corporations, and government agencies grappling with complex data challenges for risk management, regulatory compliance (like KYC/AML), and strategic analysis. Its unique value proposition lies in its native ability to leverage S&P's proprietary identifiers and high-quality data to bring accuracy and context to an organization's internal data ecosystem.

Pros

  • Directly integrates and cross-references data with S&P Global's extensive and authoritative market intelligence datasets.
  • Creates a 'single source of truth' for entities by resolving and linking disparate internal systems.
  • Significantly enhances data quality for critical functions like Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and counterparty risk management.
  • Leverages persistent, unique identifiers to solve complex entity resolution challenges.
  • Provides deep data enrichment with financials, corporate hierarchies, and industry classifications.

Cons

  • Opaque, enterprise-level pricing model with no public information.
  • Significant implementation complexity and cost, requiring specialized data management resources.
