Our BCBS 239 training introduces participants to the BCBS 239: Principles of Effective Risk Data Aggregation and Risk Reporting, a cornerstone of regulatory-driven risk management since the 2008 Global Financial Crisis. The crisis revealed how fragmented and inconsistent data silos and processes hampered banks’ ability to assess exposures and respond to rapidly changing market conditions.

This leads Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) to publish BCBS 239 in 2013, providing best practice and guidance on risk management data architecture and management, as a global standard to be adopted by its member countries around the globe. Focusing on the practicality and implementation of BCBS 239, this training explains the importance of building a robust risk management data model that aligns with evolving regulatory expectations and accounting standards over the past decades.

Participants will explore key principles such as accuracy, completeness, timeliness, and adaptability, while also learning how BCBS 239 connects with broader reforms under Basel III/IV and IFRS. Through case studies and practical exercises, the program highlights how effective data governance underpins both compliance and strategic decision-making.
