Risk in Financial Services

Course details

About the Course
Successfully managing risk is a fundamental requirement for any effective business. In financial services it is a critical component. Part of the responsibility for the credit crisis is widely attributed to a poor understanding of risk.
The Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment (CISI) Risk in Financial Services qualification is a comprehensive global introduction to all the major risk areas in financial services. It provides a sound grounding in the principles of the risk management framework and corporate governance and risk oversight. It covers specific techniques used in identifying, reducing and managing operational risk, credit risk, market risk, investment risk, liquidity risk and model risk.
The objective of the examination is to ensure that candidates have a broad understanding of the general principles of risk in business, the key risks that arise within the financial services industry, the influence of corporate governance, regulation and codes of conduct, and the approaches that are typically used to identify, reduce and manage specific aspects of risk.
