The Mission

As a technology-enabled and digital-led bank, data is at the heart of everything we do. It powers how we measure risk, assess performance, and make decisions. To ensure we unlock the full value of our data, we must guarantee its completeness, accuracy, auditability, traceability, and protection. The Global Data Organisation serves as the first line of defense in securing robust data chains, working in close collaboration with all functions, business lines, and countries across the Bank.

The Global Chief Data Office (CDO) plays a pivotal role in this mission. As a central organisational unit, the CDO partners with stakeholders across the enterprise to enable frictionless customer journeys, support ESG-driven innovation, and deliver data products that enhance decision-making. With emerging trends such as digital wallets on the horizon and increasing regulatory expectations around data governance, the CDO is evolving to meet these challenges head-on, ensuring our data remains both a strategic asset and a safeguarded resource.

Under the leadership of the CDO Belgium organisation, Data Delivery is responsible for the end‑to‑end transformation of data flows for business and regulatory purposes. This includes data delivery for the strategic Retail delivery agenda and the development of enterprise data products (in line with the Bank on a Page concept), as well as global and local regulatory reporting. In addition, the area ensures the stable run and continuous improvement of existing data flows and deliveries.
