Dun & Bradstreet Participates in HKMA Data Summit 2025 to Advance Data Innovation and SME Financing

Dun & Bradstreet was honored to participate in the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) Data Summit 2025, a flagship event under the HKMA’s “Fintech 2025” strategy designed to accelerate data innovation and strengthen financial inclusion across the industry.

As part of the Summit, Dun & Bradstreet contributed to a thought‑leadership panel discussion led by Mr. John Deng, Director and Co-Head of Client Management at Dun & Bradstreet, joined by senior representatives from Standard Chartered, The Bank of East Asia, Hang Seng Bank, and GS1. The discussion explored how the Commercial Credit Reference Agency (CCRA) analytics framework and the Commercial Data Interchange (CDI) are transforming the landscape of SME financing in Hong Kong.

Beyond the panel, Dun & Bradstreet hosted a booth at the Summit to showcase its latest advancements in credit and trade intelligence. Attendees had the opportunity to learn about D&B’s enhanced CCRA credit assessment framework, designed to strengthen financial institutions’ ability to evaluate SME creditworthiness with greater accuracy and consistency. The booth also featured Project CargoX, Dun & Bradstreet’s initiative that integrates global trade and shipping data to support more robust SME trade‑finance assessment and cross‑boundary financing.

Dun & Bradstreet remains committed to enabling this progress through trusted data capabilities, industry collaboration and continued support of initiatives that enhance transparency, efficiency and SME financial inclusion.
