Financial Institution Risk Management Issues

As a consequence of the global financial crisis, politicians, regulators, and many financial industry executives agree on the need for comprehensive risk management reform in the financial sector. While their preferred solutions may differ, most acknowledge that the lack of sound, industrywide risk management policies and procedures was one of the primary enablers of the crisis. In the not too distant past, “risk management” for many types of financial institutions principally meant managing the financial aspects of risk such as the portfolio risk of a bank for example. Many financial institutions now are viewing risk from more of a holistic, enterprise-wide perspective. The damage that can be inflicted by other categories of risk has gained mindshare among regulators and executives.

The Power of Ecosystems for Banking

whitePaper | July 15, 2022

The rise of Banking as a Service (BaaS) and real-time payments (RTP) are pushing the era of digitalization to new heights, where interconnected ecosystems and the instant exchange of data are the norm. Until now, banks and other players have largely implemented piecemeal solutions on top of existing legacy core systems. This has led to extremely expensive and complex back-end systems—with lots of time and money spent trying to create interoperable services at the application level. With the move to fully interconnected ecosystems, stakeholders will have to re-think their core systems at the most fundamental level. Achieving this will be difficult, but the rewards are great. Infrastructure-level connectivity can enable banks and other players to benefit through the monetization of customer data that will provide new insights for services that can only be developed based on a fundamentally networked infrastructure.
