In this transformative age, how risk is managed will become the key to unlocking the strategic upside of disruption. Advanced analytics and AI, robotic process automation and cloud-driven models have enabled firms to create new products and services; enhance access and experience for customers; and strengthen controls and drive down costs. As technology evolves, financial institutions today face two challenges: the first is thinking about digitizing risk management and its processes, and the second is managing risks to the entire organization as it becomes more digital.
Learning outcomes
- The risk function needs to disrupt itself. It needs to change from being a defensive tool into becoming a core component of strategic development, helping the organization find ways to both maintain existing product lines and invest appropriately in the new and what’s coming next.
- It’s going to be critically important that the risk professional of the future have a seat at the table with the C-suite, with the leaders of transformation, bringing that mindset to deliver value and trust throughout the organization.
