Mike Mayhew of Integrity Research Associates provided his insights on global research and data.  He shared his research and observations regarding traditional and alternative data, research, the ESG landscape, and regulatory actions.  A robust discussion followed as Mike helped us dig deeper into these topics.  RIXML members can request a copy of Mike's slides by contacting the Program Office.

We are very grateful to Mike for sharing his expertise with us. 

• Our financial picture is solid
• Firms have been extremely timely in their payments, which is much appreciated
• Invoices are sent throughout the year based on the anniversary of when each firm joined RIXML and are sent approximately 60 days before the renewal date

With so many initiatives underway, it can be hard to keep track of the ways your firm may be able to contribute to RIXML.org.  Below is a summary of specific things you can do to help:

• Check with the teams that manage your firm's RIXML Research and Interactions implementations.  Gather information about potential enhancements: pain points, evolving technologies and processes, gaps that require custom solutions, etc.
• Sign up for the RIXML v3 topic teams that you would like to participate in - join as many teams as you would like!
• Reach out to subject matter experts at your firm.  Forward this email to them and/or invite them sign up for a topic team.
• VENDORS:  we would love your help identifying areas of the standards that do not get used or are often incorrectly implemented.  See pages 10-11 of this document for our specific questions.
• Share the RIXML Linkback Technical Implementation Guide with the teams within your organization involved in the planning and/or execution phases of a linkback initiative; ask them to identify areas in which it is helpful and areas where it could be improved.  Encourage them to join the Linkback Working Group and/or sign up for our mailing list.
• Forward this email to anyone at your firm you think might be interested in any of RIXML's 2022 initiatives, and invite them to join the mailing list.
