Large Bank Enterprise Risk Management 1.5 Days Roundtable 2022 | Risk Management Association (RMA) | 1 November 2022 | Wells Fargo, 150 E 42nd St, New York, NY 10017, USA

Despite the increased focus on enterprise risk management, many in the financial services industry struggle to precisely define it. This roundtable will cover broad risk governance practices (risk culture, organization, roles and responsibilities, policies, and risk technology) as well as leading practices in the risk process (risk appetite, identifying and assessing, response/treatment, monitoring, and reporting). ERM directors or managers should join to better enrich their second-line programs by learning and sharing practices with other national and multi-national financial institutions (or those with more than $70 billion in managed assets).
The roundtable will feature a lead facilitator, roundtable group discussions, and may include small breakout groups that will delve deeper into issues of specific interest. You will benefit from the problem-solving techniques discussed by your peers. Participants share information about their programs (what works and what didn’t work), ask questions, and exchange ideas in a roundtable environment, to broaden their knowledge and acquire a firm understanding of the issues.

Learning Objectives:
This roundtable offers a valuable opportunity to meet and discuss ERM challenges with your peers, and to identify best practices that you can leverage at your institution to enhance the value of your compliance programs. A unique feature of RMA’s Roundtables is that each event agenda is a bit different, as the agenda is driven by RMA’s ERM Council* and registered attendees’ recommendations. However, topics will likely include:
• Introductions and Networking
• Setting Risk Appetite and Monitoring Risk Tolerance
• Enhancing Operational Resilience
• Enhancing the overall ERM Framework, better coordinating with other risk disciplines (i.e., Compliance and Audit)
• Ways to measure and enhance ERM’s program maturity
• Discussing emerging risks and managing existing risks (i.e., strategy, reputation, operational risk)
• Reporting methodologies and key metrics
• Risk and control assessment techniques and reporting that matters

Who should attend:
The target financial institution is above $70 billion in assets. We recommend the following individuals to attend:
• Directors/Managers of Enterprise Risk Management functions
• Directors/Managers of other second-line functions
• Delegated individuals from the above
We recommend no more than two registered participants per institution attend. Other financial sizes, titles/positions, professional members, and other third-parties can be considered by RMA approval
