Data Governance: A conceptual Framework, Structured Review, and Research Agenda
Data governance refers to the exercise of authority and control over the management of data. The purpose of data governance is to increase the value of data and minimize data-related cost and risk. Despite data governance gaining in importance in recent years, a holistic view on data governance, which could guide both practitioners and researchers, is missing. In this review paper, we aim to close this gap and develop a conceptual framework for data governance, synthesize the literature, and provide a research agenda.
Principles for the effective Management and Supervision of Climate-related Financial Risks (BCBS)
Climate change may result in physical and transition risks that could affect the safety and soundness of individual banking institutions and have broader financial stability implications for the banking system. To address climate-related financial risks within the banking sector, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) established a high-level Task Force on Climate-related Financial Risks in 2020 to contribute to the Committee’s mandate to strengthen the regulation, supervision and practices of banks worldwide with the purpose of enhancing financial stability.

Guidelines for Identification and Management of Step-in Risk (BCBS)
By publishing these guidelines, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision aims to mitigate potential spillover effects from the shadow banking system to banks. This work is part of the G20 initiative to strengthen the oversight and regulation of the shadow banking system to mitigate systemic risks, in particular risks arising due to banks’ interactions with shadow banking entities.
Guidelines for Counterparty Credit Risk Management (BCBS)
These guidelines set out critical aspects of effective management of banks’ counterparty credit risk (CCR) and sound practices regarding what constitutes a robust CCR management framework. CCR is the risk that the counterparty to a transaction could default before the final settlement of a transaction’s cash flows. CCR is a multidimensional form of risk, affected by both the exposure to a counterparty as well as the credit quality of the counterparty, both of which can be sensitive to highly dynamic and fast-moving changes in financial markets.
