With new never seen before market events happening every month testing traditional approaches to monitoring risk, are we just in uncharted water, or are we thinking about risk in the wrong way?
We believe it’s the latter. Effective risk management in this environment needs to be dynamic, data driven and bottom up rather than static, model driven and top down, using alternative sources of data and functional visualisations to highlight key focus areas.
With over 10 years’ experience in managing risk in the front line and serving on clearing house risk committees, through some of the most challenging times in recent history, we want to share our experience to help you implement effective risk management for today’s market.
Traditionally, financial markets have always been about product and relationships first, and technology second.
The changes in regulation, market dynamics, and the advance in technology and data is challenging this approach and providing an opportunity for new innovative solution providers and also for disrupters to thrive.
We want to help your organisation succeed by bringing you banking experience and knowledge along with a history of working in partnership with technology firms.
…it is not the most intellectual of the species that survives; it is not the strongest that survives; but the species that survives is the one that is able best to adapt and adjust to the changing environment in which it finds itself. [Megginson, ‘Lessons from Europe for American Business’]
Regulation is transforming financial markets, and we want to help your business prepare for regulatory change.
From first hand experience in regulatory programmes including Basel 3, Bilateral Margin, and FRTB, to running roadshows globally to help buy side clients understand and prepare for the mandatory clearing and uncleared margin rules, we want to help you do the same for your business.
Margins are getting squeezed and revenues are becoming harder to attain, whilst regulation continues to put pressure in capital and costs. Succeeding in this world is increasingly more about optimising the usage of financial resources than about finding an opportunity to earn an extra dollar.
We feel strongly that optimisation is not a one off vaccination or something that should happen centrally within a business, but instead something that needs to be nurtured organically with everyone in the business rowing in the same direction via a process of analysis, education, and measurement via KPIs.
High quality training needs to be relevant, practical, and tailored to the needs of your organisation and the availability of your teams. Courses can be spread out and presented virtually or condensed into intensive sessions and delivered in person, with either option allowing for interactive discussions in a confidential environment.
