Publish in Reports

How Research Nexus contributes to the Reports series. Canonical editions are published on Reports.

01Six pillars

Reports among the six pillars.

Where all outputs are published, in all formats, across its five sites, each with sources, limits and corrections. It is led by the Nexus Consortium; its home is therisk.global/nexus-reports.

F01 to F14 are the recorded handoffs of the programme year, each with the artefact that moves and its phase; R1, R2, R3 and R4 carry work around the ring. A loop counts when every pillar on it is selected. Every pillar is led by the Nexus Consortium.
  1. LabsWhere questions become experiments and prototypes: new methods, data and tools are tried in the open, with their limits on record, before the Foundry builds them, under the Nexus Consortium.Labs
  2. FoundryWhere the evidence behind a mandate or commitment is built, with its owner and limits on record.Research Nexus in FoundryFoundry
  3. UniverseWhere mandates become missions: The Global Risks Forum (GRF) records each gate, convenes the parties and keeps implementation accountable.Research Nexus in Universeuniverse.nexus
  4. Nexus StandardsWhere shared rules are agreed in the open; each jurisdiction decides adoption, and no global body holds a veto.Data and Evidence in Standardsnexustandards.com
  5. ReportsWhere governance analysis and the year's results are published, so commitments can be followed and checked.Research Nexus in ReportsReports

Reports in every area of the work

AreaReports
LeadershipSeries editors lead each edition under the series method; no funder, sponsor or member can buy or block a finding.
StrategyEach country programme agrees the scope of its profile before Q1, and nothing outside that scope is published.
CadenceQuarterly: Q1 State and Agenda, Q2 Evidence and Build, Q3 Stress Test and Readiness, and the Q4 Annual Synthesis as the flagship; an edition is published after review, not to a calendar.
OwnershipOwns editions and their evidence cutoff, country and regional profiles, technology stream briefs and the correction history.
ProcessContribution, editorial review, publication with version history, then challenge and correction as a new version.
DevelopmentDevelops country profiles each quarter, regional profiles twice a year and one exponential technology stream at a time.
SimulationsPublishes scenario findings labelled as modelled, with their uncertainty.
ReportingPublishes every output in every format across its five sites, each edition with sources, limits and corrections.
GovernancePublication is not authority: an edition is never a government risk register or a sovereign rating, and countries are never ranked.
Data and evidenceObserved, modelled and estimated evidence stay apart, and each edition states its evidence cutoff.
Finance and resourcingThe Finance and Insurance Readiness and the Portfolio and Readiness series make the evidence readable to finance.
Risk and assuranceEach finding states its method, uncertainty and limits, and reproducible concerns go to the owner of the finding.
ParticipationResearchers and practitioners contribute reviewed findings, and any reader can challenge a finding.
CommunicationEvery output is published in accessible formats with its version history.
LocalLocal evidence enters a profile only within the scope its country agreed.
NationalCountry profiles are updated each quarter, within the scope each country agreed before Q1.
RegionalRegional profiles are published twice a year, in Q2 and Q4, and never override a country's own findings.
PlanetaryThe Q4 Annual Synthesis reads country, regional and technology work together, without ranking countries.

02Contribution to reports

What Research Nexus adds to Reports.

A chapter on the state of evidence for the edition's theme: where research is strong, where it is contested and which questions decision holders raised that research could not answer. Findings remain GCRI's; this chapter describes the interface.

Process

Publish in Reports: Due diligence to suspicion report

The FATF Recommendations set customer due diligence, transaction scrutiny and suspicion reporting to the financial intelligence unit, without prescribing monitoring systems.

  1. 01 Know the customer

    1. 01Customer due diligenceDataset · Research network coordinatorThe institution verifies the customer and beneficial owner and understands the relationship's purpose. Due diligence is ongoing.
    2. 03Risk-based approach and customer riskModel · Research network coordinatorMeasures are proportionate to the risks identified. The Recommendations read here do not fix risk labels or the review period.
  2. 02 Monitor

    1. 02TransactionsSource · Research network coordinatorTransactions through the relationship are the input to scrutiny.
    2. 04Transaction monitoringModel · Research network coordinatorTransactions are checked against what the institution knows of the customer, their business and risk profile.
  3. 03 Investigate

    1. 05Alert reviewStep · Research network coordinatorFlagged activity is reviewed and either closed or escalated for investigation. The Recommendations do not describe this step.
    2. 06InvestigationStep · Research network coordinatorAn escalated case is examined to decide whether suspicion exists. The Recommendations do not describe the case process.
  4. 04 Decide and report

    1. 07Decision to reportDecision · Compliance officer at management level (in some countries called the MLRO)If the institution suspects funds are crime proceeds or linked to terrorist financing, law should require it to report promptly.
    2. 08Report to the FIUStep · Research network coordinatorThe report goes to the financial intelligence unit, the national centre for such reports. The text says promptly, with no day count.
    3. 09Test and improve monitoringStep · Research network coordinatorAn independent audit function tests the system. Authorities should give guidance and feedback that help detection and reporting.

Outline of an external standard or method, from its public sources. It describes what the framework says, not a record of any run. It does not show that Nexus or any partner performs, certifies or approves a step. A gate is a step of the method, never a Nexus approval. Steps shown as general practice are marked in the QA record. The Recommendations here apply to financial institutions.
