The Credit Risk Edge: Outsmarting the Data Gap

Summary

Facing data gaps in risk modeling? Discover how shared default data solves the problem and drives better regulatory outcomes. In a world where low default events challenge traditional credit risk modeling, GCD offers an edge.

This session will unpack:

• How to close the data gap for low-default portfolios
• Benefits of cross-bank data pooling
• End-to-end use cases from Project Finance to Corporate CCF
• The role of data lineage and audit trails in model governance
• What CROs should demand in modern risk data

The smarter the data, the stronger the model.
