The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) views data as a strategic asset and is committed to meeting the principles and practices of the Federal Data Strategy while aligning agency data initiatives with strategic and business objectives established by the OCC Strategic Plan.
The purpose of the OCC’s Data Governance Board (DGB) charter is to define the authority, membership, and roles and responsibilities of the OCC DGB and its relationship to other internal bodies.
Data governance is the process of setting and enforcing priorities for managing data as a strategic asset in service of an agency’s mission. The Chief Data Officer (CDO) has executive responsibility for governance of the OCC’s data assets. The DGB aids the CDO by providing an agency-wide perspective on priority-setting and decision-making for data initiatives.
