Product Overview

Backed by FactSet's 45 years of content and services expertise and unified symbology model, Managed Cross Reference Service (MCRS) seamlessly links your disparate, complex datasets with unmatched precision. MCRS will regularly connect to your on-prem or cloud-based data sources, collect the relevant data, transform that data according to your specifications, translate and match each record to the correct FactSet permanent identifier, and provide files containing elevated information, exactly how you want to see it.

Highlights:

• With flexible mapping capabilities, you can create precise, custom rulesets to ensure each record matches the appropriate FactSet permanent identifier. Track your relevant universe of entities and securities based on what matters to you—eliminating the hassle of manual mapping.
• Unlock the full potential of data by connecting your internal datasets and third-party data using our permanent identifier. With diverse alternative data metrics, you'll gain a more sophisticated level of insights that will streamline decision-making and support smarter business strategies.
• Use MCRS independently or as part of our comprehensive Data as a Service (DaaS) solution for optimal efficiency. Take it one step further with FactSet's suite of Data Management Solutions (DMS)—enrich your datasets and achieve greater accuracy with detailed hierarchy information, firmographics, and robust entity and security linkages.
