Benjamin E Diokno: Data Governance Seminar Speech by Mr Benjamin E Diokno, Governor of Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP, the central bank of the Philippines), at the Data Governance Seminar, Manila, 14 June 2019. * * * To my colleagues here in Bangko Sentral and to our resource persons today, good morning. Welcome to our data governance seminar.
As we prepare ourselves with the data governance seminar this morning, let me start with some food for thought: It used to be that the problem of society is not having enough data and computing power. Today, what we are facing is clearly an abundance of data and almost unlimited computing power.
