Types of Investment riskMarket Risks or systematic risks: is the
posssibility of an investor tto experience losses due to factors that affect overall performance.
Specific Risks (Unsystematic risks): tied directly to the performance of a particular security and can be protected against through investment diversification
Operational Risks(KRIs)Key risk indicators, operational risk, risk
mitigation—these terms pop up in most content focused on risk management. But, these terms aren't often used in a way that provides guidance on improving processes. We all need to understand what role KRIs play in risk mitigation, but do we all know how to get started turning concepts into action?
KRI definedKey risk indicators (KRIs) are an important
tool within risk management and are used to enhance the monitoring and mitigation of risks and facilitate risk reporting
Operational RisksOperational risk is defined as the risk of loss
resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems, or external events. Operational KRIs are measures that enable risk managers to identify potential losses before they happen.
Effective KRIs should beMeasurable - metrics should be quantifiable
(e.g., number, count, percentage, dollar volume, etc.).
Predictable - provide early warning signals. Comparable - track over a period of time
(trends). Informational - measure the status of the risk
and control.
Leading & lagging KRIs
Leading KRIs are measures that are considered predictive in nature. They are derived from metrics that can help to forecast future occurrences. Lagging KRIs are metrics based on historical measures. These help to identify trends in the firm.
Importance of KRIsKRIs play an important role in risk management
by predicting potential high risk areas and enabling timely action.
KRIs enable firms to: Identify current risk exposure and emerging risk
trends. Highlight control weaknesses and allow for the
strengthening of poor controls. Facilitate the risk reporting and escalation
process. Operational risk management adds value to the
firm.
