SYNOPSIS

As regulatory expectations under the CBUAE Rulebook and IFRS 9 continue to evolve, UAE banks face growing pressure to detect credit deterioration early, improve staging accuracy, and strengthen credit risk frameworks.

The From Regulation to Resilience roundtable, hosted by MEA Finance in partnership with Loxon, is an interactive, discussion-led forum designed to foster peer-to-peer learning and to dive into how AI-enabled Early Warning Systems are transforming credit risk management. Participants will share experiences, debate challenges, and explore practical approaches to using data, advanced analytics, and AI-driven intelligent automation to slow stage migration, improve cure rates, optimise capital consumption, and turn regulatory compliance into a strategic advantage in real-world banking operations.
