Moody's Domestic Markets Workshop
The Future is Now: Harnessing the power of AI and bolstering cyber security for smarter, safer strategies
Welcome to our third annual Domestic Markets Workshop, which will take place on April 28-30th 2026 at Moody’s Ratings’ Canary Wharf office.
Building on the success of previous events, this year’s Workshop aims to bring together senior representatives and subject matter experts from Moody’s, along with senior leaders from our majority-owned domestic affiliates: GCR (Africa), ICRA (India), KIS (South Korea), MERIS (Egypt), Midroog (Israel), and Moody’s Local (Latin America).
Together, we will share experiences and exchange ideas surrounding two very important (and highly topical) themes:
- Bolstering cybersecurity; and
- Harnessing the power of artificial intelligence
During the workshop, you can expect a combination of presentations, panels, and deep dive working sessions in smaller groups.
The workshops will also include social engagements in the evenings, where you and your team will be able to interact with other participants in a more casual setting.
We look forward to hosting you in London and advancing our agenda together.
Please navigate the relevant tabs in this site to find the full agenda for the three days and for other key information.
I wish us all a very productive, engaging, and enjoyable workshop ahead. See you very soon!
Yours sincerely,
Monica Merli
