  • Assessing data quality
  • Identifying the root causes of variations in the quality of submissions to date
  • Putting controls in place to mitigate risks to the quality of reporting
  • To what extent has the review, and governance processes within firms been validated or shown to be ineffective?
  • Ensuring integrity of data from origin to final reporting
  • Meeting the dual requirements of "fit for purpose" and "right first time"
