Operational Banking Risk Management for Bankers

Objective:

The nature of risk management is fundamentally changing within banks and financial institutions. It is no longer seen purely as a control mechanism - but as a critical input into the basic business question: am I earning enough revenue out of this transaction to compensate me for the additional risks I am taking?

This Bank Risk Management training will provide you with a high-level overview of modern risk management, including a breakdown of the new regulations, and how banks are managing compliance with these. This is then followed by an in­ depth examination of the techniques and management structures used to measure and control risk, including a detailed discussion on measuring risk across all the major classes: market, credit and operational.
