8th Edition of Operational Risk Management for Financial Institutions

The ITCPE Academy has partnered with GFMI, a marcus evans company, who announces the commencement of its Operational Risk Management for Financial Institutions flagship series of events and invites all US-based Operational Risk Managers and Directors in Finance, to attend this niche event and enjoy a peer-to-peer networking environment. They will also have the opportunity to hear exclusive case studies and best practices in Operational Risk Management in an IT perspective from top-tier banking professionals, working for financial institutions such as BlackRock, JP Morgan, Citi, UBS, MassMutual, M&T Bank, Valley Bank and many others.  

More specifically, this GFMI industry-working group will provide practical and experienced perspectives to help financial institutions improve their operational risk management program.

Experts in the field will also examine the regulatory environment, the functionality of risk processes and systems as well as people risk. Finally, delegates will come away from this industry meeting having learnt the practical skills and methods required to ensure their financial institution is able to comply with regulations and ensure they do not suffer reputational and financial losses from making mistakes with their operational risk strategies.
