Non-Financial & Operational Risk USA

Developing best practices to mitigate non-financial and operational risks in an ever-changing financial landscape

The ever-changing role and responsibility of the risk professional, especially during the challenging and unprecedented times, requires new thinking, stringent processes, and greater understanding of the diversity of systems. CeFPro’s Non-Financial and Operational Risk Congress provides a clear path on the current challenges, and future path and opportunities.

The risk landscape is rapidly evolving, and whether your remit of responsibilities resides within climate risk, regulation, cybersecurity, people risk, lines of defence, and beyond, you will be impacted by opposing risks.

Key highlights

  • REGULATION:
    Managing regulatory requirements to manage disparities in an everchanging landscape
  • LINES OF DEFENCE:
    Coordinating risk silos across the three lines of defences whilst increasing collaboration for full risk oversight
  • CYBERSECURITY:
    Managing evolution of cybersecurity and developing defence strategies to mitigate risk
  • THIRD PARTY RISK:
    Controlling and managing third party risk to manage risk exposure
  • RCSA:
    Developing tangible outcomes by leveraging benefits of RCSA beyond a tick box exercise
  • RESILIENCE:
    The implementation of an overarching resilience framework to capture all risks
  • MODEL RISK:
    Developing a model risk output to address errors and improve accuracy of reporting
  • CONVERGENCE:
    Covering the integration of compliance, operational risk, and enterprise risk under one framework
