How would you prove that beyond doubt, today and in the future?

You're asking how to data science.
In the past: Measuring correlations among historical data
In the future: Machine learning (fitting a model to the historical data and hoping that it holds)
Proving "beyond doubt" is impossible because for that you need an oracle.
If there was substantial remaining bias you could probably measure the impact of race on credit while training the model but remove it or consider everyone the same race when scoring customers.
