“IFRS 9, challenges and solutions: from methodology to implementation”
The new IFRS 9 accounting standard will have significant impacts on some “core” processes of the bank and on some important phases of the Credit Value Chain, particularly on credit and risk management processes and strategies, and on IT architecture. Marco Macellari, Senior Manager - Management Consulting, and Daniele Vergari, Principal of Credit Solutions - Management Consulting, illustrated the conceptual design and functional architecture for the implementation of an application solution which responds to these new accounting requirements.
“The centrality of the Information Framework in order to respond to the management and regulatory needs of CRO-CLO-CFOs”
The legislation on prudential supervision requires an increase in data quality and industrialization to avoid an increase in capital absorption. Mario Calò Carducci, Senior Manager - Product Management, and Giancarlo Montorsi, Manager of Credit Solutions - Management Consulting, explained how to identify an information framework in line with the production of the “Loan Tape” and efficient in the performance of activities by the Risk Management function.
