It powers how we measure risk, assess performance, and make decisions. To ensure we unlock the full value of our data, we must guarantee its completeness, accuracy, auditability, traceability, and protection. The Global Data Organisation serves as the first line of defense in securing robust data chains, working in close collaboration with all functions, business lines, and countries across the Bank. The Global Chief Data Office (CDO) plays a pivotal role in this mission. As a central organizational unit, the CDO partners with stakeholders across the enterprise to enable frictionless customer journeys, support ESG-driven innovation, and deliver data products that enhance decision-making. With emerging trends such as digital wallets on the horizon and increasing regulatory expectations around data governance, the CDO is evolving to meet these challenges head-on, ensuring our data remains both a strategic asset and a safeguarded resource. As part of the Global CDO organization, the Global Data Management department is tasked with developing our design capabilities and establishing a comprehensive mandate for data frameworks and controls.

The role acts as a key enabler of the first line of defense , working closely with business and country domains, CDOs , and data owners to ensure data risks are proactively identified, assessed, and mitigated. It also ensures that data-related control frameworks (e.g., Data Management, BCBS239, and NFR controls) are effectively implemented and monitored. The Expert Lead Data Risk drives the uplift of data risk maturity through a single, consistent approach to defining, measuring, and managing data risk across all countries and domains, embedding risk-by-design into data products, platforms, and processes, and integrating data risk into strategic initiatives, transformation programs, and regulatory commitments. Ultimately, the role safeguards the bank's ability to rely on data for risk management, regulatory reporting, and decision-making, while providing senior management and regulators with transparent, actionable insight into data risk exposure.
