New Paradigm in Risk Management and Compliance: How to Anticipate and Prepare for More Regulatory Scrutiny

Why Should You Attend:

Some 12 years after the 2007-08 crisis, risk management regulations have been tightening. The consensus of regulators still is that they must be further tightened. In such a context, financial institutions face a permanent regulatory overwhelm, to the detriment of strategic orientations.

If risk management becomes a subset of compliance, financial institutions can no longer ensure their competitive edge by the quality and uniqueness of their risk management. This is why a ‘beyond regulation’ type of risk management is needed.

Learning Objectives:

For banks, thinking in terms of complying with regulation being enough to understand risks, is no longer appropriate, if it ever were. With the advances of technologies and financial techniques, the spreading of information and knowledge to every place, the financial institutions that will win are the ones that can best exploit the wealth of data and make them into risk management wisdom and risk-based action, above and beyond what regulators may require. These now include technology firms participating in finance activities (fintech’s).

In this webinar, we show, with little or no fear to be pretentious, how we see this new paradigm, and invite participants, on that basis, to build up their own ideas about what is now obsolete and how banks can now compete on risk management in the post-crisis way.
