Risk Assessment and Preventive Measures Training Course (Online / Remote)
1Summary
Political shifts, credit defaults, currency swings, interest rate changes, legal missteps, liquidity crunches, operational failures, price volatility, regulatory gaps, these are the risks that keep institutions up at night, and they rarely show up one at a time. This course from the Arab British Fellowship Training Academy was built to help participants make sense of all of them at once.
It hands institutions a set of guidelines they can rely on as reasonable, practical standards for assessing risk, opening with general principles before moving into four connected sections, each adding specific guidance for a different category of risk assessment.
