Lesson 3 of 5

SupTech: how supervisors collect and analyse data

Supervisors receive more data from lenders than people can read. This lesson follows the Bank for International Settlements’ studies of supervisory technology: the two areas where it is used, the difference between data that firms push to the supervisor and data the supervisor pulls, the four generations of supervisory data systems, how incoming data are checked, with a worked example, and what makes a tool part of everyday supervision.
