Excellence in Operational Risk, MENA

This premier GFMI event brings together leading decision-makers to define operational risk appetite and transform this into a clear management strategy going forward. Alongside this it is imperative to embed a consistent operational risk culture across the institution, observing where operational risk fits into the overall strategy of the organisation.

Operational risk is an ever-present and ubiquitous threat. Banks are always exposed to operational failure, security, political and technology risk and, alongside this, the impact of reputational damage. In MENA operational risk is an entirely different beast to Europe, and strategy must be embedded locally, where internal processes are built from the bottom up.
