Risk Management - Workshop on Risk Management for Funds

An integral part of the House of Training/ALRiM Risk Management Certification Programme is a one-day workshop in which the participants apply the knowledge that they acquired during the programme.

This workshop will be followed by an assessment based on a personal presentation.

Prerequisite to attend this course:

• Having attended all the risk management courses in the programme and having passed the corresponding exams.
• This workshop is the last step in the programme, and a requirement to complete the certification.

The workshop includes a review of all the material covered in the programme and several exercises to be carried out in small groups. Each participant will be given a fictitious, but realistic risk event that could occur in a fund. The participants will analyse the risk and create a project to address it. The projects will be presented to a jury of risk experts, who will evaluate the participants’ presentations and assign marks to them.

Each project presentation will be structured as follows:

• Project Description
• Risk Description
  • Detailed Description of the Risk
  • Risk Factors and Causes
  • Actual and Potential Losses
• Risk Resolution
  • Analysis of the Risk and Possible Causes
  • Strategy for Addressing the Risk
  • Concrete Steps to Address the Risk
  • Obstacles
• Preventive Measures to Be Implemented

Each participant will be allotted 30 minutes to present his/her personal prepared project  to the jury and answer questions from the jury.
