Data Quality Matters: How Insurers are Benefiting from Optimal Processes and Accurate Analysis
Acquired data may come from original collection efforts, or it could simply be a third-party purchase. Being able to answer questions about the data is crucial.

Data's value depends on its accuracy, its timeliness and whether it's complete.
