Are you developing or formalizing the ERM program for your bank? Does your board of directors understand their liability regarding ERM? Do you want to ensure your current program is complete, yet keep it simple? Risk management is at the heart of banking and every bank must have processes, policies, and procedures in place to assess and manage the risks on their balance sheets. Regulators want to ensure your bank’s management team and board are capable of managing your bank’s existing and emerging risks.
Learn the fundamental pieces of the ERM puzzle, how they relate to each other, and how to integrate your ERM program into the bank’s strategic plan. Review the various components of a strong ERM program and how the process starts with the “tone at the top” – the board.
Topics covered:
ERM general background and key definitions.
Identifying the specific building blocks/components of a simple yet complete ERM program.
The three key ongoing phases of ERM:
Why you need to form a formal Board Risk Committee and establish a committee charter.
Establishing an internal ERM Committee and choosing the right ERM Committee members.
Integrating the ERM program into your strategic plan.
Top risk categories, definitions, and how they are interrelated.
Developing the Board Risk Appetite and Tolerance Statement – description of process.
Benefits of implementing your ERM program.
