Operational Resilience & Risk Management for Finance Professionals

This webinar explores what operational risk and operational resilience mean in practice for financial services firms, from systems failures and cyber threats to third-party disruption and governance weaknesses. We will examine key regulatory and industry expectations, including evolving supervisory guidance and board accountability standards. The session will consider practical approaches to identifying, assessing and mitigating risk, strengthening controls and scenario testing resilience. We will also reflect on recent regulatory statements and case studies to understand lessons learned when things go wrong. Finally, we will discuss how to embed a proactive risk culture and resilience mindset across the organisation.

This webinar provides one-hour of CPD and offers insights and updates from a leading industry-expert speaker.
