Enterprise OpriskCenter

The Challenge

Implement a comprehensive solution for operational risk that not only measures op risk but also provides a foundation for reducing operational risks while lowering costs.

The Solution:

Operational risk management functionality built on an enterprise-wide foundation covering organizational, process, and data management functionality

Firms are rapidly adopting the view that an effective system solution for operational risk must go beyond risk assessment surveys, loss event databases, and op risk capital calculations. Operational risk exists everywhere and in every process – from human resources to front office to accounting to financial control to settlements. Thus, the demands of operational risk drive the need for a strategic enterprise view, and an enterprise-worthy system solution that can both measure and manage op risk.

OpRiskCenter accomplishes this with four integrated components:

• data collection and monitoring.
• organizational management and accountability definition.
• business process and management.
• op risk measurement and reporting.

The top layer is strongly supported with several key underlying components, which are essential for reducing process-related risks.

• Control self assessment programs.
• Loss event tracking and database.
