Data as a strategic asset

"Governing data means treating an intangible asset with the same rigor as a financial asset: mapping it, valuing it, protecting it, and reporting on it."
— Pejman Gohari · "Data & AI: Strategy, Governance and Implementation" · DUNOD 2020

Why data is an asset

In a banking context, data drives every critical process: credit scoring, fraud detection, prudential reporting, customer knowledge (KYC), GDPR compliance. Poor data management creates direct operational, financial and regulatory risks.

  • →An asset that deteriorates if not maintained (outdated data, duplicates, errors)
  • →An asset that creates value when properly structured and accessible
  • →An asset subject to legal obligations (GDPR, DORA, Basel III)
  • →An asset for which the CEO and Board bear strategic responsibility
  • →An asset exposed to AI risks: hallucinations, bias, induced decisions
