Register: https://atlan.com/context-conference/ **Nasdaq's Core Governance Reporting Metrics** is a Re:Govern 2025 session video in the Atlan Re:Govern watch center. Michael Weiss from Nasdaq reveals the metrics that matter: time to discover assets, quality and resolution time, and asset utilization. Watch it at https://atlan.com/regovern-watch-center/nasdaq-reporting-metrics/ (email required to keep watching). All sessions: https://atlan.com/regovern-watch-center/ ## Speakers - **Michael Weiss**, AVP, Product Management, Nasdaq. Michael runs a hybrid platform model with centralized infrastructure with embedded teams, and proves that metadata isn't overhead, it's the multiplier that scales advanced analytics globally while building board-level credibility. ## Companies - **Nasdaq**: A $49B company operating 30+ exchanges, Nasdaq is the intelligent fabric of finance. Nasdaq deploys AI across 50 exchanges globally - from generative AI surveillance detecting market manipulation to machine learning accelerating bank risk calculations. ## What's inside Nasdaq measures governance success through three core metrics, each tied to business impact. Discovery efficiency tracks how business users (not just data scientists) find assets using business-aligned terms. Quality monitoring measures failure frequency and resolution time for regulatory obligations and market decisions. Utilization and cost-benefit analysis tracks who's using assets and compares production costs against value - including soft numbers like regulatory fines avoided. ### Key takeaways - Discovery metrics must account for different personas - business users need business-aligned terms, not just technical documentation - Quality metrics track asset failure frequency and time to resolution, critical for regulatory obligations and market participation decisions - Utilization metrics show how many users and AI systems actually leverage assets, revealing what's valuable versus what's waste - Cost-benefit analysis compares production/governance costs against direct revenue (selling datasets) and soft value (fines avoided) - Cross-market metrics measure global reuse and sharing patterns as governance expands beyond single-entity thinking ## More from Re:Govern 2025 - [Virgin Media O2: Context for All](https://atlan.com/regovern-watch-center/virgin-media-o2-context-for-all/) (session recording) -
