Banking

The banking section of the Finance, Insurance and the Economy subsite maps how banks' risk data, climate and operational-resilience obligations crosswalk to Nexus records: BCBS 239 risk data aggregation, the Basel Core Principles, the BCBS climate principles and operational-resilience principles, so that exposures to hazards and transition can be traced from source record to board report. Every artifact of the area carries a UNI (Unique Nexus Identifier), which identifies and never certifies.

01Scope

Banking: what the area covers, and what it leaves to others.

The sectors and industries section of Finance, Insurance and the Economy. Scope as the area context entry states it (PROPOSED).

In scope 5

  • Risk data aggregation lineage records crosswalked to BCBS 239 principles
  • Physical and transition exposure records for loan books, with hazard and asset identifiers
  • Operational-resilience and ICT third-party records (DORA, BCBS)
  • Counterparty identification with LEI
  • Climate scenario references by NGFS version

Out of scope 3

  • Capital calculations or model approval
  • Credit decisions
  • Supervisory assessments

Jurisdictions No jurisdiction note is recorded for this area yet; jurisdiction narrows what applies and never implies that a Nexus profile satisfies a law.

02Nexus Standards that apply

6 Nexus Standards for this area.

The Nexus Standards the area context entry lists. Every one is proposed or specified; none is adopted by an authority.

    Status proposed · 5 rules stated. Read NS-14

03Restricted compatibility profiles

2 closed standards, named only.

Closed or paywalled standards appear by name and link only; any compatibility profile of one is built on simulated data and kept on protected pages until an institutional arrangement with the issuing body is recorded. Nexus Standards is not affiliated with, endorsed by or certified by any standards body named here.

06Systemic couplings

4 couplings to other areas and subsites.

Each coupling names the mechanism that links this area to another; select a card on the canvas to trace it. Mechanisms are stated in the context bank (PROPOSED).

Canvas · the area and its couplingsDesign, not a record
Banking: systemic couplingsThe couplings the area context bank records for Banking: 2 areas in Finance, Insurance and the Economy, 2 areas in other subsites and 2 subsites reached. Each coupling carries a mechanism stated in the context bank (PROPOSED); a reading aid, not a dependency proof.

Fig.RUNNING marks the area you are reading; DONE an area in the same subsite, QUEUED an area elsewhere and GATE a subsite reached. Tags give reading order only, never a status. Design, not a record.

  1. Central banks and financial supervisorsFinance, Insurance and the EconomySupervisors translate Basel standards into national rules and run climate scenario exercises that set banks' data requirements.
  2. Insurance and reinsuranceFinance, Insurance and the EconomyCollateral insurance and catastrophe cover determine how physical losses reach bank balance sheets.
  3. Cities and the built environmentCities and the Built EnvironmentMortgage portfolios carry flood and heat exposure recorded in building and exposure layers.
  4. Digital, telecom and platformsDigital, Cyber and AIBanks depend on critical ICT third parties whose outages are operational-resilience events.
07Data and feeds

4 sources, with provider, licence and delivery path.

Sources the area reads or proposes. Delivery follows GRIx first; a source is shown live only after an owner decision admits it for public pages.

Every feed · pending admission

No legal register row admits any of these sources for live display on public pages yet, so nothing is read from them here. A register row that exists records the source for the governed GRIx path; admission for public pages is a separate owner decision.

08Readiness

What each pathway can read from this area.

GCRI Canada evidence pathway

GCRI Canada

Exposure and lineage records linking loans to hazard and asset UNIs become readable as evidence for GCRI Canada systemic-risk research under its own rules.

Open the GCRI Canada evidence pathway

Recognition pathway

The Global Risks Forum (GRF)

A bank's published crosswalk and attestation history give GRF a record trail to consider; nothing is recognised by adoption.

Open the Recognition pathway

Capital pathway

The Global Risks Alliance (GRA)

Green and resilience lending can present verified exposure data and data-lineage attestations to GRA, which alone decides capital readiness.

Open the Capital pathway

Each institution decides under its own rules what it reads as evidence; no pathway is an approval, a readiness statement or investment advice.

11Audiences

Who works with this area: 4 audiences.

  1. Bank risk and data officers
  2. Supervisors
  3. Climate risk analysts
  4. Auditors (as readers of evidence)
12Working group

The working-group charter, proposed.

Scope

Profile bank risk-data lineage, hazard exposure and operational-resilience records and crosswalk them to Basel standards and DORA.

No working group is chartered yet; a community may charter this one under NS-13 through a docket.

Deliverables · 3
  1. Risk data lineage profile mapped to BCBS 239 principles by number
  2. Loan-level physical exposure record profile with LEI and asset UNIs
  3. Crosswalk to BCBS climate principles
Liaison targets · 4
  • Basel Committee on Banking Supervision liaison sought
  • GLEIF liaison sought
  • NGFS liaison sought
  • European Banking Authority liaison sought
13Open problems

3 open problems an expert would start with.

  1. Collateral location data are incomplete, so physical-risk exposure is estimated at postcode or regional level.
  2. BCBS 239 adherence is assessed by supervisors without a machine-readable evidence format.
  3. Scenario-to-loan translation relies on proprietary models that cannot be audited from public records.
14References

cite
Relation: the external standard is cited by identifier and URL as a reference.
adopt
Relation: the external standard is used as published, values validated against it.
compatibility profile (restricted)
Relation to a closed or paywalled standard: named and linked only; any profile is simulated and kept on protected pages.
pending admission

GRIx
The governed data layer of Nexus Foundry: external data is read through it with its licence and source release.
docket
A public change record under NS-13, decided by editors with written reasons.
attestation
An evaluator's recorded result for one clause and one subject under NS-11; never a certification.
liaison sought
A liaison the working group would ask the body for; none is held unless the body confirms it in writing.
18Learn and apply

Where Banking is taught, worked on and run.

Risk Academy disciplines that teach Banking, with their courses; the GCRI Canada, The Global Risks Forum (GRF) and The Global Risks Alliance (GRA) subsites that carry those disciplines; and the Nexus Foundry systems the standards name. Mappings are proposed for review (Risk Academy standards map, 2026-10-17); a link says a page on the same subject exists, never an endorsement or a conformance statement; framework names in course titles are named and linked, never reproduced.
