Will the development of data processing technology accumulated in the Big Data banking database systems improve the credit risk management process or will it contribute to the development of Shadow Banking and the use of unethical practices for the surveillance of potential borrowers?

Large commercial banks generate high financial surpluses allowing for the implementation of modern integrated teleinformatic internet banking systems, Business Intelligence data analysis systems, data processing platforms in Big Data database systems, etc.

There were already situations of unethical use of modern ICT solutions, analysis of comments on social media portals, during which the bank verified the customer's data entered into the loan application by also scanning information that the potential borrower types in social media portals.

This informal verification took place without the knowledge of a potential borrower and could then be the basis for suing the bank.

However, the bank's client is not always aware of the fact that it can be invigilated in such a way by the public trust institutions that the bank should be.

Of course, these types of cases, which we know from the media is supposedly a margin of entire banking, which can be one of the categories of a new type of unethical practices typical of the so-called Shadow Banking.

However, only part of this type of information gets to the media.

Maybe this is just so-called "the tip of the iceberg" of this problem.

The situation is similar in the situation of cybercriminals' attack on bank IT systems or electronic banking platforms.

If it is possible to keep this type of events secret, then customers do not find out about it.

This is because media only receive information about some of these types of events.

Does any of you conduct research in this area?

If so, I invite you to cooperation.

I am asking for comments
