Summary
"Data has value, but our accounting methods do not give data a monetary value, and as a result, business executives lack the necessary information to make the most effective decisions about how to best manage and leverage this valuable asset. This book presents a straight-forward, well-researched, practical solution to this problem by defining exactly what "data" is, explaining the role of data management in data asset valuations, and presenting an "open framework" along with methods for valuing data."--Provided by publisher
