Risk Management is central to the way a financial institution works. Building theelements of risk management into a consistent and effective framework is a challengefor many firms. With our experience across enterprise risk management, credit risk,market risk, liquidity risk and reputational risk, we are able to add value to the projectsand solutions implemented by our clients.

At Risk Reward we are regularly working with banks and regulators in both thedeveloped and emerging markets and are proud of our reputation for deliveringhigh quality advisory services and training to meet their needs. Basel II and itssuccessor papers raised the bar for risk management in many firms. We regularlyassist firms to achieve their Basel II programme objectives addressing the key issuesof risk, governance and the development of a risk management framework, the pillar1 requirements for credit, market and operational risk; and the pillar 2 requirementsincluding ICAAP developments. Working with management we can assist with theimplementation of practical solutions that add value to the business.

Whatever new regulatory framework emerges, soundly based banks with propersupervision and management systems and those which actually generate real profits,will be best placed to take advantage of the full upswing when it eventually arrives.When it does, we believe that mergers and acquisitions and consolidation of thebanking sector will follow. The strong – and not necessarily the largest – will take overthe weak and underperforming. Where will your bank be when this occurs?

This brochure sets out our key services on risk management which we believeprovide a bank and its employees with the key skills required for a successful riskmanagement implementation.
