Concurrent Bank Risk Peer Exchange Sessions
The Risk Peer Exchange focuses on risk governance, regulation, committee effectiveness, compliance and culture. To open the Risk Peer Exchange sessions, we explore issues such as:

  • What are the top three risks your bank is most concerned about?
  • Has your board set up a separate risk committee, and why?
  • Who is responsible for risk mitigation within your bank?

Concurrent Bank Risk Peer Exchange Sessions
Following a short refreshment break, we reconvene in peer exchange sessions, building on earlier conversations by addressing topics such as:

  • How frequently does your board review cyber risk and cybersecurity? How are you staying on top of this issue and its impact on your bank?
  • What has the board done to create a culture of risk awareness throughout the organization?
  • What are some best practices regarding separating the audit committee and risk committee lines or areas of responsibility?

12:30 PM – 1:30 PM
Networking Lunch
We set aside an hour for all peer exchange participants to eat, check emails and return phone calls before resuming the afternoon sessions.

1:30 PM – 2:45 PM

For an hour and fifteen minutes, we expand our conversations to include questions like this for our Risk Peer Exchanges:

  • Has your bank hired a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), and why/why not?
  • Has your bank suffered a cyber-intrusion? How did you handle it?
  • How does your bank manage enterprise risk management?
