Most KRI dashboards describe last quarter’s losses; very few warn of the next one. This masterclass concentrates on leading, preventive indicators — how to select them with root cause analysis, design them around the best-performing examples in banking and financial markets activities, and set threshold levels that translate corporate risk appetite into numbers a business line can act on. Through classroom discussion and practical exercises, participants build an efficient indicator programme within their risk management framework and take a top-of-the-house, portfolio view of KRIs. Applications to information security, project management and conduct are worked through in detail.

Frequently asked
What are leading key risk indicators, and why do they matter?
Leading KRIs are preventive indicators that warn before the loss event, where most dashboards only describe last quarter’s losses. The masterclass shows how to select them through root cause analysis, design them around the best-performing examples in banking and financial markets activities, and set threshold levels that translate corporate risk appetite into numbers a business line can act on.
Who should attend, and what format does the course take?
Heads of operational risk, enterprise risk managers, operational risk and operations managers, and internal auditors. The programme combines classroom discussion with practical exercises, and works through applications to information security, project management and conduct in detail.
Can the programme be run in-house, and in which languages?
Yes. BIZENIUS delivers the masterclass in English and French, and an in-house edition can be tailored to your indicator landscape and reporting lines. Sessions run on a rolling calendar with dates confirmed on request; fees and quotations are provided on enquiry.
