Course overview:

Effective risk management is key to running a successful bank. The majority of bank failures are not because firms took on too much risk, but rather because they did not properly understand and control risk. 

With so many aspects of risk management falling to the senior management to oversee and approve, it’s essential for those who manage risk on a day-to-day basis and those who hold oversight responsibilities to understand how managing risk can affect company strategy and capital management. 

This workshop will cut through the risk management jargon and help you clearly understand your role in identifying, understanding, and overseeing risk in your firm.

This course is delivered by Mark Anderson who has delivered a variety of compliance programmes globally for several international organisations. Mark is also a Non-Executive Directive with an emphasis on risk and compliance.

By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:

  • Recognise what the FCA/PRA expect when managing business risks
  • Explore how to define and monitor risk appetite
  • Discover what information you need to effectively oversee risk
  • Understand the expectations for resilience and recovery planning
  • Learn how to delegate effectively to third parties
  • Understand how risk is embedded in your business and its culture
