OPERATIONAL RISK

Navigate Rapid,
Wide-Ranging Changes

Operational risk is the risk to current or projected financial condition, earnings, and resilience arising from misconduct, human error, inadequate systems or processes, or adverse external events. Operational risk touches every part of a financial institution and is heavily influenced by the strength of internal controls. In this workshop, directors and management will learn how this risk occurs, what can be done to mitigate it, and how effective oversight helps foster a strong and risk-aware culture.

Work with and learn from experienced OCC examiners who lead this workshop, which includes discussions of best practices, lectures, and hands-on exercises designed for directors and senior management of national community banks and federal savings associations.

  • Review

    key operational risks, risk management processes, and operational resiliency.

  • Share

    best practices for structuring, organizing, and overseeing risk-based audit programs.

  • Outline

    methods and motives of internal fraud and how external fraud targets consumers and the banking system.

  • Discuss

    key practices for managing risk exposure for new products and services or third-party partnerships.

  • Learn about

    regulatory expectations for addressing cyber threats as they grow in volume and sophistication.

  • Understand

    oversight roles and governance responsibilities in establishing a strong ethical culture.
