Overview
Operational Risks span across not just the financial spaces but also the non financial spaces. This three- day interactive workshop initiates and fortifies business professionals, from both financial and non financial institutions, in the practical issues and challenges in operational risk management.
Today’s business entity comes face to face with disruptive forces such as exponential technology (ET),digitization, cloud computing, big data, block chain technology, fintech and escalating cyber security concerns.
