Industry Engagement
GBI Forum
The mission of the GARP Benchmarking Initiative (GBI) Forum is to promote discussion of topics faced by subscribing member banks that may warrant future data collection studies and an open exchange of best practices for benchmarking. The Forum hosts two semi-annual meetings, bringing together senior executives from Risk and Regulatory Policy functions within subscribing GBI institutions.
Participation is only available to GBI subscribers.
