The MSCI Analytics Summit, held today, provided valuable insights into the evolving landscape of risk management. The event featured three panels discussing critical themes shaping the future of risk management.
A major topic was the increasing allocation to private assets and its implications for risk management. Panelists emphasized the need for improved data and analytics to support this growing asset class.
Another key theme was artificial intelligence (AI). While participants agreed on AI’s transformative potential, there was no consensus on its specific impact on risk management yet.
One notable insight came from Rick Bookstaber, who highlighted how Generative AI (GenAI) could enhance risk analytics by turning them into narratives. This innovation could foster better collaboration between risk management teams and front office operations.
The event underscored the opportunities for leveraging technology and analytics to advance risk management in a rapidly changing financial landscape.
