Navigating the minefield of credit risk and Basel II compliance requirements can be a daunting task, but not if you have a system in place to help you analyse the streams of data, and a clear understanding of strategic goals and expectations.
 
With this in mind, SAS Institute SA will be bringing together SAS exerts at a Credit Risk Summit to be held in Nigeria on Wednesday, which aim to help organisations to address the challenges within the financial services industry, and discover ways to understand the wealth of value hidden in raw data.
 
Says Edward Sungura of SAS MEA: SAS has been working closely with the worlds leading financial organisations for nearly thirty years, it can help financial institutions in Africa not only to survive in the global arena, but to thrive.
 
The full-day event will cover every aspect of credit risk with regard to Basel II, from the conceptualisation of Basel II and credit risk through to SAS software positioning regarding CRMS integrated with BIS, Basel II and credit risk referenced implementations and the software to business alignment matrix.
 
The event will also encompass Basel II credit risk approaches and worldwide best practices, Basel II credit risk implementation and realisation and a roadmap for beyond Basel II, including realisation of ROI, market risk, operational risk and enterprise risk management.
