Alternative Data, Alternative Future

Alternative data is becoming essential to understanding how businesses truly operate in a fast changing, interconnected environment. As risk becomes more dynamic and continuous, relying solely on structured, historical data is no longer sufficient. Traditional data (such as financial statements, corporate registries, and official filings) remains crucial—but on its own, it often no longer tells the full story. 

CRIF Talks, CRIF’s podcast series exploring how innovation, sustainability, and data-driven intelligence are reshaping financial systems around the world, explores this evolution in the episode Alternative Data, Alternative Future. During this conversation, Fabio Lazzarini, Alliances & Partnerships Senior Director at CRIF, provides a clear perspective on how alternative data is changing the way risk is assessed, trust is built, and decisions are made across credit and supply chains.

In this evolving context, the focus is shifting from periodic evaluation to ongoing monitoring, where the ability to combine data, analytics, and governance becomes critical to support faster, more informed, and more resilient decision making.
