This document discusses the need for banks to take a holistic approach to managing reputation risk. Currently, most banks silo each type of risk (e.g. credit, market, operational) without considering how they interconnect and impact reputation. The document advocates looking beyond individual risk departments to foster a culture where all employees understand how their actions can affect reputation risk. It also suggests learning from other industries' reputation risk practices and using new technologies like analytics and social media monitoring to proactively manage this critical intangible asset.
Quantifi whitepaper how the credit crisis has changed counterparty risk man...Quantifi
This paper will explore some of the key changes to internal counterparty risk management processes by tracing typical workflows within banks before and after CVA desks, and how increased clearing due to regulatory mandates, affects these workflows. Since CVA pricing and counterparty risk management workflows require extensive amounts of data, as well as a scalable, high-performance technology, it is important to understand the data management and analytical challenges involved.
• Current trends and best practices
• Key data and technology challenges
The document discusses how utilizing true competition when procuring insurance can save companies on average 33% on their premiums. It explains that the insurance product is inherently adverse to competition due to brokers having relationships with many carriers and the complex nature of insurance. It argues that companies should understand these relationship costs and utilize consultants to establish benchmarks, carefully evaluate bids, and conduct negotiations to maximize savings and advocacy.
Uncovering Fraud Dilemmas - cVidya in London May 2012cVidya Networks
Presentation on uncovering the recent dilemma that fraud departments face – today and tomorrow given by Jason Lane-Sellers, cVidya's Fraud Expert, at Arena International's Revenue Assurance, Fraud Reduction and Cost Management in Telecoms 2012 conference in London.
1) Operational risk appetite is a subject of debate as it is difficult to reduce to a single monetary value given its nature is affected by management culture and external factors.
2) A firm's risk appetite should be approved by the board and reflect an acceptable trade-off between risk and returns, commonly defined as the amount of risk a firm is willing to take for a given risk-reward ratio.
3) Expressing operational risk appetite can start qualitatively through a firm's risk and control assessment likelihood and impact scales, and then develop more quantitatively over time through indicators and modeling.

This document discusses trade receivables and their associated risks from the perspective of an expert in the field. Trade receivables represent a mixture of credit risk from buyers' inability to pay and operational risks like contractual disputes, fraud, and errors. Technological advances have improved transparency but issues remain around underwriting criteria, transparency, and risks becoming conflated. Credit insurance provides a good hedge against credit risk but involves operational risks. New platforms aim to capture both buyer and seller data to better finance and mitigate risks in receivables.
This document discusses how title insurance has evolved to help manage risks for lenders. Specifically:
- Title insurance was traditionally used to minimize errors and manage problems with real estate liens and priority. It has now expanded to also provide insurance for personal property collateral through new "UCC insurance policies".
- UCC insurance works similarly to traditional title insurance but insures against issues with perfecting security interests in personal property. It helps establish the strength of commercial loan assets.
- Risk managers see insurance as a key tool for mitigating operational risks. UCC insurance in particular imposes discipline and reduces legal risks associated with personal property collateral.
The document discusses risk management and insurance for banks. It covers the following key points in 3 sentences:
The document provides an overview of risk management and insurance for banks, including the importance of identifying risks, implementing controls, and determining whether to retain or transfer risks through various insurance options.

Procedures for examiners are outlined to assess the adequacy of banks' risk management and insurance programs based on their specific risk exposures and attempts to obtain necessary coverage.
The document is a financial newsletter that provides an overview of recent economic and market events. It discusses declines in major global stock indices like the Dow Jones, S&P 500, and indices in Europe and Asia, with losses ranging from 7-11% for the previous month. The Indian stock indices also saw significant declines, with the Sensex losing over 1200 points and forecasts that the Nifty will also tumble. The newsletter provides economic indicators, a column on credit default swaps, and sections on equity research, current events, quizzes, and more.
1) Commercial banks need to adopt an event-driven management approach to better coordinate underwriting and credit risk management teams. This will help streamline processes and protect credit standards.
2) Currently, underwriting processes are fractured and complex, leading to inefficient use of time and resources. Deal approval processes in particular are disorganized and prone to lobbying.
3) An event-driven framework would define key "credit events" such as evaluating portfolio fit, deal structure, and approval/review. This would introduce standards and clarity around roles and responsibilities to expedite decision making.

Credit scoring is a statistical technique used to evaluate credit risk by assigning a score based on a borrower's credit history and other data. It allows lenders to consistently evaluate large numbers of loan applications and distinguish higher and lower risk applicants. Statistical scoring models are more accurate and objective than judgment-based decisions. While credit scoring improves lending processes, concerns remain that some populations like minorities may be disadvantaged. Overall, credit scoring provides an effective way for lenders to balance risk and returns when granting loans.
The survey found that more than a third of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) do not have enough reserves to weather a renewed economic downturn. Cash reserves are the strongest determinant of an SME's ability to obtain financing. Lenders now require solid collateral for loans, and SME business plans must convince lenders that funds will be used for capacity building rather than extending credit to customers. While some SMEs have no choice but to rely on unsuitable sources like personal credit cards, owners should try to avoid running for the exits and consider alternatives like easier supplier credit terms.
This document discusses risk management in banks. It outlines the three main categories of risks banks face: credit risk, market risk, and operational risk. It then discusses each of these risks in more detail. Credit risk is the potential that a borrower may default on obligations. Market risk relates to changes in market prices. Operational risk involves losses from inadequate internal processes or systems. The document also mentions regulatory risk and environmental risk as other risks banks face. It discusses tools for managing different types of risks and the importance of capital adequacy requirements.
This document discusses credit risk modeling and provides an outline for a course on the topic. It introduces statistical, structural, and reduced form models for analyzing default probability. Key aspects covered include probability of default, loss given default, credit ratings, factors that affect default, and using logistic regression to estimate credit scores and map them to default probabilities and rating classes. The document also lists relevant textbooks and academic papers on credit risk modeling.
This document discusses credit risk and credit ratings. It provides an overview of credit risk modeling, key determinants of credit risk like probability of default and loss given default, and the major credit rating agencies and their rating scales. It also describes the credit rating process, which involves both quantitative financial analysis and qualitative assessments, and results in an opinion on the issuer's ability to repay debt. Regulators require banks to measure and manage credit risk using models and capital requirements.
Risk mitigation strategies in SMEs (small and medium business)Sanjukta Basu
1) Risk management is important for all businesses, especially small and medium enterprises (SMEs), as they face greater risks due to their size and limitations.
2) SMEs are exposed to specific risks like sole proprietorship structures, limited funding options, tough competition from larger players, and high employee turnover.
3) Effective risk management in SMEs includes reducing risks to manageable levels, ensuring regulatory compliance, and customizing tools to assess their risks.
This document discusses operational risk and provides details on its definition, measurement, and management. It defines operational risk as losses resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, and systems or from external events. It describes the Basic Indicator Approach, Standardized Approach, and Advanced Measurement Approach for calculating operational risk capital charges under Basel II. It also outlines the data elements, risk categories, and tools used to measure and manage operational risk.

The document discusses various financial risks faced by microfinance institutions (MFIs). It identifies MFIs' origins in the non-governmental organization sector, their specialized operational activities involving small loans and many customers, and their typical features like low capital bases and reliance on debt funds. It then examines specific risks associated with MFIs' operations, assets, liabilities, staff capacities, technology absorption, and high growth expectations. The document also outlines liquidity, currency, and interest rate risks for MFIs and provides suggestions for mitigating these risks.
Credit risk management in banks is a complex process that involves identifying, measuring, monitoring, and controlling risks associated with a bank's lending activities. The document discusses several key aspects of credit risk management:
1) It outlines various methods used by banks to assess credit risk when lending such as cash flow analysis, balance sheet analysis, and assessing repayment capacity.
2) It discusses the importance of proper credit appraisal, monitoring existing loans, and having standards for security, documentation, and loan renewals.
3) It notes that credit risk arises from both internal factors like faulty underwriting and external factors like changes in government policy or industry conditions. Managing this risk requires tools like exposure limits, risk ratings, and regular
Collateral management can help mitigate risks and meet increased regulatory requirements. It offsets credit exposure and potential future exposure if a counterparty defaults. An accurate understanding of how collateral impacts credit risk is important. Developing a cross-business collateral management team provides opportunities to lower costs and complexity compared to separate siloed teams. Mastering collateral management practices allows using a triparty agent for repos and tailored structures on a single platform, reducing costs.
Banking credit concentration management -limiting setting Eric Kuo
The document discusses concentration risk management through implementing credit limit boundaries based on a bank's risk appetite. It proposes that credit limits should be set not just based on expert judgment but also using risk metrics like PD, LGD and EAD. Concentration risk can arise from large exposures to individual counterparties, related groups, or from concentrations in specific industries, regions or activities. Banks tend to have exposures concentrated in their largest customers and industries, so limits are needed to control this risk and protect banks from unexpected losses that could threaten their credit ratings and market capitalization.
Before the financial crisis, the primary role of the bank underwriter was to make good decisions in deploying the bank’s resources to help loan applicants achieve their goals. Learn how this role in changing in the industry.
This document discusses various types of risks faced by banks, including credit risk, market risk, operational risk, liquidity risk, and reputation risk. It provides definitions of different risk types such as credit risk, concentration risk, and interest rate risk. The document also covers topics like the importance of credit risk management, factors to consider in credit risk analysis, and modern approaches to assessing and managing credit risk in the banking industry.
Risk offshoring brings cost benefits but also builds risk knowledge through centralization. It is important to set clear governance and ownership over processes, regardless of location. While market risk offshoring has been successful, credit risk results vary due to needing more client interaction. The document discusses different offshoring models and their tradeoffs regarding costs, efficiency, and challenges like cultural differences, motivation, and competitive demand for risk professionals.
What are risks facing commercial banking institution sector by hamze dalhahamzedalha
Risks facing commercial banks include credit risk, market risk, operational risk, liquidity risk, and reputational risk. Credit risk is the potential failure of borrowers to repay loans. Market risk includes the possibility of losses from changes in interest rates, stock prices, and exchange rates. Operational risk arises from inadequate internal processes and people. Liquidity risk is the inability to meet short-term obligations. Reputational risk damages a bank's public image. Understanding and managing these risks is essential for banking institutions.
This document discusses credit risk management in banks. It begins with introducing credit risk and explaining the goals of credit risk management, which include maintaining risk-return discipline and exposure limits. It then describes the credit risk management process, which involves identifying, measuring, monitoring, and controlling credit risk. A key part of this process is the credit rating mechanism, which assesses borrowers' creditworthiness based on various parameters and assigns risk grades. Overall, the document provides a high-level overview of credit risk management in banks and the importance of processes like credit ratings.

Mobile Banking – A Transformation of Traditional BankingInfosys Finacle
www.infosys.com/finacle
How comfortable are we with Mobile Banking? Not very much, it seems. Even today, most of us who use mobile banking do so merely to check account information, transfer funds or pay bills. How many of us are aware of mobile technologies like Near Field Communication (NFC) and Remote Deposit Capture (RDC), which have evolved in response to customers’ need for a mechanism to make quick in-store/ transit purchases and check deposits without visiting a branch or an Internet banking site?
http://www.infosys.com/finacle
Mobile banking has often been perceived
either as an extension of internet banking or
as an isolated channel, which can help banks
in minimizing costs and generating better
revenue streams. One of the major reasons
cited for the success of mobile banking is the
omnipresent nature of the channel, which sets
it apart from all the traditional ones. This
differentiator can drive revenues not only from
the mobile perspective but also in conjugation
with other channels. Today, banks need to
carefully study how the mobile can fit into the
overall multi-channel framework in order to truly
leverage the benefits associated with it.
This document discusses how social media is changing the banking industry and how banks can leverage social media. It provides perspectives from banking executives on how social media can drive innovation through service, product, and process innovation. Social media allows banks to improve customer service, generate leads, deepen customer relationships, and differentiate from competitors. Banks need to listen to customers on social media, engage in conversations, and join discussions in online communities to benefit. Executives share how their banks are learning from early social media experiences and adapting their strategies to be more active and responsive online. Web listening tools and private online communities are presented as ways for banks to gain insights from customers.
This document summarizes a webinar about how technology is inspiring bank branch design. The webinar featured presentations from executives at Royal Bank of Canada and Allen International discussing their experiences redesigning bank branches using new technologies. RBC redesigned their branches to be more open and focused on customer advice, using technologies like Microsoft Surface tables. Allen International discussed projects redesigning branches for other banks to enhance customer experience.

Agility in the context of banking doesn’t mean just speed in execution; it also means that the bank is nimble and flexible. Agility helps the bank to win a marathon, as opposed to a hundred meter dash.
The banking system in the Philippines is made up of universal and commercial banks, thrift banks, and rural and cooperative banks. The country's economy grew steadily over the past 20 years but challenges remain around reducing poverty and achieving development goals. Recent elections saw Benigno Aquino III elected president. Emerging areas of focus for banks include microfinance, bancassurance, mobile banking, and wealth management as the population and economy modernize.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.

Chris Jones, Director of Product Management at BrainChip , presents the “Temporal Event Neural Networks: A More Efficient Alternative to the Transformer” tutorial at the May 2024 Embedded Vision Summit.
The expansion of AI services necessitates enhanced computational capabilities on edge devices. Temporal Event Neural Networks (TENNs), developed by BrainChip, represent a novel and highly efficient state-space network. TENNs demonstrate exceptional proficiency in handling multi-dimensional streaming data, facilitating advancements in object detection, action recognition, speech enhancement and language model/sequence generation. Through the utilization of polynomial-based continuous convolutions, TENNs streamline models, expedite training processes and significantly diminish memory requirements, achieving notable reductions of up to 50x in parameters and 5,000x in energy consumption compared to prevailing methodologies like transformers.
Integration with BrainChip’s Akida neuromorphic hardware IP further enhances TENNs’ capabilities, enabling the realization of highly capable, portable and passively cooled edge devices. This presentation delves into the technical innovations underlying TENNs, presents real-world benchmarks, and elucidates how this cutting-edge approach is positioned to revolutionize edge AI across diverse applications.
