The operations of financial organisations are under fire in the modern world.
With new and increased threats becoming apparent in conjunction with globalisation, technology, industry complexity and the expansion of services, having a robust operational risk and compliance framework in place is of course essential to avoid severe losses – both monetary and reputational.
But, in a rapidly evolving global economy, a compliance-only, regulation-reactive strategy is no longer enough.
If financial institutions are to gain a true position of strength in the post-recession world, they must create a strategy that embraces the real profit potential of the risk and regulation disciplines.

Operational risk and compliance professionals must turn their attentions to their legacy, reporting and storage systems to ensure requirements are met.
This event will assess strategies for such problems as:
