Insurance professionals can easily recognize the organizational assets that have a measurable financial value, such as inventory, people, buildings, land, equipment, even intellectual property. It's time to recognize also the dollar value of another asset: your insurance data. IDMA recognizes the value of data as an asset — a revenue-producing asset — in your organization. The better you manage this critical asset, the more leverage you'll have to find the dollars in your data.
