Right Time, Right place: The drive for change in operational risk (part 2)

Operational and non-financial risk (ONFR) management has an opportunity to step up like never before and support financial organisations as they go through a period of rapid transformation.

To do so will mean making operational and non-financial risk resilient by using innovative technologies, which then enable risk leaders to innovate how they serve the business and actively add value. In this episode of the ORX Operational Risk Podcast, Simon Wills, Luke Carrivick and Mark Cooke explore how operational risk can do this in detail.

This second part of the discussion follows the publication of a recent report that explores the future of operational risk in light of rapid digitalisation and other changes in the financial services industry. This report sets out two elements of operational and non-financial risk management – “Optimise” and “Active” – explaining how optimisation will only go so far in terms of keeping pace with the rapidly changing risk profile.

Developments in Operational Resilience in the Financial Sector

In this episode of the ORX Operational Risk Podcast, Steve Bishop, Melanie Lavallin and Luke Carrivick discuss the work being done in financial services to develop and implement approaches to operational resilience. They look at the challenges faced by financial firms around the world.

This podcast follows the publication of a recent report which is available exclusively to our members – Progressing Operational Resilience. This report is partly based on the activities and discussions held with our Operational Resilience Working Group, which has been running since 2020.

Our members can access the new report at: https://members.orx.org/orx-publications/progressing-operational-resilience. And non-members can get more information and resources on operational resilience at https://managingrisktogether.orx.org/

The new ORX podcast is coming next week.

Released on July 8th, the podcast will focus on developing and implementing approaches to operational resilience and the findings of a recent ORX published review on the subject.

How operational risk scenarios are evolving for the future of risk management.

In this episode, Giuseppe Aloi, ORX Scenarios manager, is joined by Luke Carrivick and Steve Bishop from ORX to discuss how scenario analysis has evolved over the last decade and how it will continue to develop.

This conversation follows a series of discussions we held with operational risk experts, scenario experts and the heads of operational risk on the role of scenarios at their firms.

We wanted to understand both how scenarios are currently being used and how they can evolve to better support operational risk management in financial organisations. From these discussions, we created a white paper – Operational Risk Scenarios: From Risk Measurement to Risk Management and Beyond – which is available to download for free. 

This podcast builds on the white paper, with Giuseppe, Luke and Steve looking at how scenario analysis at financial institutions has moved from an initial focus on modelling and measurement to playing a key role during the pandemic and, finally, exploring how scenarios are evolving to support proactive operational risk management.

The 2021 Operational Risk Horizon

The team from ORX discuss the key findings from the recent Operational Risk Horizon Survey to clarify the top emerging risks facing the industry in 2021 and beyond.

Enhancing The Three Lines of Defence Model in Operational Risk

Simon Johnson, Esther Renfrew and Maddy Beckett from ORX discuss the value of the three lines of defence (3LOD) model in operational risk management. This follows the publication of the ORX Practice Benchmark on enhancing the 3LOD model, released earlier this year.

 

They explore what the 3LOD is meant to achieve and it's benefits. They also discuss how our benchmark study shows it's working in practice, what challenges organisations face when implementing it and how views of the model differ across the three lines.

 

Our members can access the Practice Benchmark for free on our website, and non-members can purchase a copy: https://managingrisktogether.orx.org/research/three-lines-defence-practice-benchmark
