Financial institutions operate in an increasingly complex and interconnected environment characterised by rapid digitalisation, evolving business models, heightened regulatory scrutiny and growing dependence on technology and external service providers. These developments have significantly expanded the operational risk landscape beyond conventional process failures and internal control weaknesses to encompass cyber incidents, digital frauds, technology disruptions, data vulnerabilities, third-party dependencies and risks arising from emerging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence.
The Reserve Bank of India ' s regulatory and supervisory approach has increasingly emphasised the need for robust operational risk governance, clearly defined accountability, effective internal controls and institutional resilience. The Guidance Note on Operational Risk Management and Operational Resilience, along with regulatory frameworks governing IT governance, cybersecurity, outsourcing and fraud risk management, underscores the importance of strengthening risk identification, assessment, monitoring and mitigation capabilities. There is also growing emphasis on identifying critical operations, managing interdependencies, establishing impact tolerances and ensuring continuity of essential services during disruptions. These developments are complemented by evolving international standards and practices, particularly the Basel Committee's Principles for Operational Resilience.
Against this backdrop, financial institutions need to move beyond a compliance-driven approach towards embedding operational risk management and resilience into their governance, business strategies and organisational processes. The programme will bring together regulatory perspectives, supervisory priorities, institutional experiences and global good practices to facilitate a deeper understanding of emerging risks, implementation challenges and approaches to strengthening institutional resilience
The programme aims to enhance participants' understanding of evolving regulatory and supervisory expectations relating to operational risk and resilience; strengthen institutional approaches to risk governance, assessment and mitigation; and facilitate the adoption of effective resilience frameworks, business continuity arrangements and crisis response mechanisms to safeguard critical operations.
The program will deal with the following topics:
The sessions will be addressed by senior regulators, experienced banking professionals and domain experts, bringing together regulatory and supervisory perspectives, practical institutional experiences and specialised domain expertise.
