Abstract
A method comprises storing a plurality of accounts; and generating a hierarchical data structure from the plurality of accounts by: identifying a first set of accounts and a second set of accounts responsive to the first set of accounts and the second set of accounts satisfying a first set of rules; linking the first set of accounts to a first entity profile and the second set of accounts to a second entity profile; and responsive to the first plurality of profile attribute-value pairs and the second plurality of profile attribute-value pairs of the second entity profile satisfying a second set of rules, linking the first entity profile and the second entity profile to a household entity profile by inserting a household identifier into a household attribute-value pair of each account of the first set of accounts and the second set of accounts.
