5 Identifying the Critical Data Elements

Critical Data Elements are Business Terms that are critical for a specific business process. These terms and their values are vital and significant for specific processes, for example, Regulatory Reporting or Management Reporting.

These data elements are marked critical as per their context, justification, level of criticality, and approval for the classification. They are ensured to have additional rigor in their data quality checks, controls, and so on and have sufficient metrics around it to ensure timeliness and accuracy of the values.

Critical Data Elements (CDEs) are defined for each report in Regulatory Reporting. DG contains all CDEs for a particular report. The list of Critical Data Elements is identified for a particular report and the level of criticality will be defined. These elements are monitored for accuracy and consistency of data within the Key Indicator and Control section.
