Research With a Defined Purpose
GIDAFS’s research mission addresses questions at the intersection of financial systems, law, and digital technology. Our project framework connects a specific problem with an analytical approach and an intended public benefit.
The scope includes banking and nonbank finance, digital assets, financial monitoring, insurance, and public financial management.
Questions for Research
Potential studies include how supervisory systems identify risk, how financial institutions assess resilience, and how digital tools affect accountability. Other questions concern the regulation of emerging financial instruments and the design of effective compliance controls.
These topics provide a basis for discussing research proposals. A project’s scope, participants, timetable, and expected outputs depend on its approved plan.
Research Approaches
The Institute’s mandate encompasses fundamental and applied research, comparative regulatory studies, analytical modeling, professional surveys, and expert consultation. An appropriate approach depends on the research question, access to evidence, and the limits of the available data.
Current Research Projects
Explainable Artificial Intelligence for Auto Lease Delinquency Risk
Financial Digital and Legal Mechanisms for Regulatory Compliance
Artificial Intelligence Governance and Model Risk in Financial Supervision
Research Outputs
Research may lead to studies, analytical reports, methodologies, educational materials, or policy recommendations. Findings need to be understood in the context of their methods, assumptions, and limitations.
