About The Seminar

Operational risk is inherent in all products, activities, processes and systems, and the effective management of operational risk is a fundamental element of a financial institution’s risk management programme. The control of operational risk is concerned with good management which involves good corporate governance, risk culture, an effective framework of operational risk management policies, processes and systems, and effective and efficient systems of internal controls. This is a value-adding activity which impacts the achievement of organisational objectives, the stability of earnings and bottom line performance. Operational risk also affects an institution’s credit rating, share price and reputation. Therefore, operational risk must be a key consideration for any business.

In the wake of rogue trading scandals, frauds, massive fines imposed by regulators for anti-money laundering breaches and misconduct, cyberattacks, data leakages and the financial and operational impact of extreme weather events, it is widely acknowledged that operational risk is by far the most significant risk faced by financial institutions.
