How can you guarantee that the external credit risk data you wish to use aligns with your internal data? Join us as we leverage insights from banks, regulatory bodies, and academic institutions to create a framework, guideline, and code that will help ensure and validate credit risk data representativeness
GCD Nordic Conference, 07 May 2025, Copenhagen-Denmark We are pleased to invite you to our one-day GCD conference, with Nordic topics and venue. GCD data is both global and regional, so it makes sense that our conferences need to be at both levels too.
Every credit risk model starts with data. But before calibration, validation, or implementation, there’s a more fundamental question: what data should you use? As regulatory frameworks like Basel 3.1 demand greater transparency—and as IFRS 9 and CECL models face increasing scrutiny—the need for accurate, representative data has become critical. Yet assessing data representativeness remains a challenge across the industry. To address this, more than 20 global banks and leading consultants came together under GCD to develop a practical, industry-aligned set of guidelines. These guidelines are designed to help credit risk teams make informed, defensible decisions about what data to use—backed by shared experience and regulatory insight. We invite you to a webinar where we’ll walk through these guidelines, their development, and how they can be applied in practice. Register Here
Global Credit Data (GCD) and United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) have jointly conducted a global survey to evaluate how banks are integrating climate-related risks into their credit risk management frameworks. The survey has been designed to offer a detailed analysis of the methodologies banks currently use to assess climate-related credit risks, with a focus on identifying common practices in modelling approaches and broader risk assessment strategies. Insights from the survey have been incorporated into an upcoming publication, which aims to support the enhancement of climate risk assessment and management methodologies used by banks. The webinar will offer a preview of the forthcoming report and share initial insights from the global survey. It will touch on key themes, including the current scope of climate risk assessments, how results are being used, and trends in the integration of climate risks into credit risk modelling and management frameworks.

We’re excited to announce our highly anticipated European Conference, taking place in Zurich, Switzerland on March 5–6, 2026. Join senior credit risk professionals from leading European and global banks for two dynamic days of insight, collaboration, and networking.
Webinar on Practical Insights on Transition Planning under the EBA Guidelines on ESG Risk Management This session provides an overview of the EBA Guidelines on ESG Risk Management and discusses their implications for banks and financial institutions. In particular, it focuses on the role of transition planning as a forward-looking tool for managing climate-related risks within existing risk management frameworks. The presentation introduces a practical step-by-step approach to developing an ESG transition plan for bank portfolios. It will cover key methodological elements, including the definition of suitable key risk indicators (KRIs), the use of reference pathways and climate scenarios such as CRREM, IEA, and NGFS to assess portfolio alignment, and approaches for translating transition planning into financial risk metrics. The session aims to provide practical insights into how banks can operationalize transition planning and integrate it into their broader risk management processes.

Overview Wholesale credit risk frameworks are highly sophisticated and well-governed, yet they remain largely retrospective, relying on periodic historical data. As markets, macroeconomic factors, and regulatory expectations evolve continuously, traditional approaches often miss real-time signals. This webinar explores how AI and GenAI can enable faster sourcing and integration of large-scale financial data into credit decisioning. We will present a practical ML and agentic AI framework across the wholesale credit risk lifecycle covering risk signal design, signal aggregation, and exception handling within a strong governance structure. The session will highlight how combining agentic AI with traditional methods can support faster, more accurate, and regulatorily compliant credit decisions.
