Measuring Value in a Modern FS Data Platform reframes how Financial Services organisations should evaluate data platforms. Rather than measuring pipelines, volumes, or dashboards, true value emerges from consumption, velocity, optionality, semantic alignment, and control. By landing raw data, accelerating delivery through reuse, organising around business domains, and unifying meaning in a layered Bronze–Silver–Gold–Platinum architecture, modern platforms enable faster decisions, richer analytics, regulatory confidence, and long-term adaptability. This article provides a practical, consumption-driven framework for CDOs and CIOs to quantify and communicate real data value.
