Implementing a Risk Management Program - Handbook, Risk Appetite and Risk Culture

This training program will review a few ways to ensure that a financial institution reviews things from the start and consistently, in setting up a risk management framework that allows the bank to focus on its strategy rather than mere compliance.

Why Should You Attend:

This webinar will provide an overview of what it takes to set up an up-to-date full and consistent risk management framework within a financial institution, beyond compliance.

Risk management frameworks have been set up by incremental touches, each due to the occurrence of risks or to the emergence of new risk regulation. The present overflow of regulatory constraints mean that most banks are too busy to comply, and have to give a lower priority to optimizing their risk management practices.

In this webinar, we try to take things back from the start, and, after a review of regulatory constraints, highlight a few strategic areas for a review of risks.

Areas Covered in the Webinar:

• Governance, risk management and compliance
• Setting up of roles and responsibilities
• Defining and documenting processes
• Writing the risk management handbook
• Handling the trading room
• Stress-testing the risk management program
• Defining the risk appetite
