ANNA wins ‘Best Standards Solution for Data Management’ at the A-Team Data Management Insight Awards USA 2023
London, 29th September 2023 – The Association of National Numbering Agencies (ANNA), a global
association dedicated to the support of efficient capital markets through the use of widely embraced
International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) standards, today announced that they have won
‘Best Standards Solution for Data Management’ at the A-Team Data Management Insight Awards
USA 2023
.
ANNA has been working with financial data standards for over thirty years, and the International
Securities Identification Number (ISIN) has been used for over forty years as a globally adopted,
common language of financial instrument processing, bringing international interoperability to the
markets. The ANNA Service Bureau (ASB) is a central data hub collecting and enriching securities
data from around the world since 2001. With complex global markets and transaction volumes and
associated risk ever present, improved data sharing via the ASB continues to help market
participants with data integrity.
Operated jointly by CUSIP Global Services (CGS) and SIX, the ASB operates as a central hub of
financial and referential instrument information, receiving and consolidating ISINs, FISNs and CFIs
and associated data contributed by a federated group of 120 National Numbering Agencies (NNAs),
and providing coverage across more than 200 jurisdictions. This includes ISINs for equities, debt,
entitlements, structured products, collective investment vehicles, options, indices and other
referential instruments. The ASB is the most complete and current collection of ISINs and related
data available worldwide, containing data for more than 102 million ISINs.
Stephan Dreyer, ANNA MD, said, “We thank the A-Team for this award. We are delighted to accept
it this year, particularly for the recent implementations of the ISIN revision introducing new data
elements, the current work of the ASB, as well as our ongoing work for the inclusion of digital assets.
When maintaining data standards globally and with more users of the ASB service, recent
enhancements have given NNAs an improved user experience, more effective tools for data
management, and the ability to deliver high-quality reference data to market participants.”
Angela Wilbraham, CEO of the A-Team Group, said, “These awards recognise both established
solution vendors and innovative newcomers providing leading data management solutions, services
and consultancy to capital markets participants across North America. Our congratulations go to the
Association of National Numbering
