Managing Risk Appetite and Tolerance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers scenario analysis and risk appetite and tolerance from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because risk registers are widely maintained and rarely used in an actual decision, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with business continuity planning, control testing and risk identification in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where business continuity planning is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against the Basel framework
- Put control testing on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Make a decision about risk identification without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of risk reporting to the board rather than escalating it
