FinTech Seminar Series - The Role of AI in ESG practices

Data governance is critical to ensure that data is managed ethically and securely. It involves establishing policies, procedures, and standards to ensure data is accurate, accessible, and protected. Such frameworks should consider legal and regulatory compliance, risk management, and ethical considerations. In addition, they should ensure that data is shared in a transparent and accountable manner, with appropriate measures in place to safeguard against misuse or abuse.

Data collaboration across industries has the potential to drive significant value. Still, it requires careful consideration of data governance principles to ensure that it is done in a responsible and trustworthy manner.
