Why data governance?
Organisations digitizing their processes are creating more data than ever and the widening disconnect between data generated and the quality of data is a growing concern. A Gartner report estimated the cost of poor data quality averages $12.8 million per year to organisations. Consequently, critical business decision-making is affected, leaving organizations with spiraling costs, wastage of time, and additional risks due to non-compliance with data regulations.
