  • Credit risk
  • Market risk
  • Asset and liability management (ALM) and liquidity risk

OpsTech

Data and analytics are replacing manual work in many FIs’ middle- and back-office functions, while vendors now provide a variety of ‘OpsTech’ tools to address a new breed of organizational systems and processes. In this growing area of research we examine:

  • Automation
  • Decoupled architecture
  • ‘Componentization’
  • Repackaged solutions

Regulatory compliance and reporting

Complying with regulation is a fact of life for financial institutions, but getting it right can be costly and complex.

  • Regulatory requirements including Basel 2 and 3, Dodd-Frank, MiFID II, FRTB and GDPR
  • Risk-aware accounting (the introduction of IFRS and CECL standards)
  • Stress testing
  • Calculating the cost of compliance

Data

As risk management continues to disperse throughout the organization, being on top of data – its quality, integrity and timeliness – is vital. As data management in particular comes of age, we consider the detail in the data, analyzing the following key areas:

  • Data infrastructure and databases: performance, scalability and security
  • Data governance
  • Data quality
  • Data integrity and control
  • Data integration
  • Alt-data
  • Ease of data access
