Mountain on blue background

Over the past 10 years, financial services have undergone a transformation that has brought together, at speed, new digital technologies, business models, service offerings and partnerships.

This new white paper from ORX explores the consequence of this transformation for operational and non-financial risk (ONFR). We spoke to approximately 50 CROs and other senior leaders in the operational risk discipline, gathering their views on:

  • Whether ONFR is increasing
  • Whether and how ONFR is changing
  • Whether ONFR management needs to change
  • What successful ONFR management will look like in the future

“There was overwhelming consensus among risk leaders that change in the financial services industry is well underway.
The change is broad, accelerating and underpinned by technology. And, critically, it is not optional. There is an imperative for change but change creates risk. The challenge facing all companies, not just financial services players, is that the risk of not changing is even greater."
