National Banking Institute (NBI) NBI is pleased to announce a one and half days residential workshop on Risk Management

The workshop shall cover the Risk Management Framework, Computation of Key Components of Interest Rate Risk and Credit Portfolio Risk Management.

A risk management framework is critical for a bank to effectively manage the various risks it faces and ensure its long-term stability and success.

Practical Approach on Market and Liquidity Risk Management

Market risk management is becoming complex discipline over the years, with increased focus on internal risk standards, evolving market conditions and significantly increased regulatory requirements. Volatility of instruments traded in market as well as market interest rates may result in multiple risks to banks and financial institutions as market participants. This increases the importance of effective management of market and interest rate risk.

Operational Risk Management

Operational Risk has been increasing day by day in the Nepalese Financial Sector and large risks events are taking place one after another, and it is always difficult to assess when, how and at what intensity the operational risk events occur. But the losses stemming from operational risks may erode the capital of a BFI with such a magnitude and intensity that the BFI may be left with no room for escaping from the impact, which could precipitate up to a situation of collapse. Thus, a clear understanding on operational risk and its control has been always a challenge to the management.  

Fraudulent Behavior with Signature and Document Forgery

Forgery in documents which are used for any banking transactions may lead to greater economic loss. Hence personnel involved in such activities need to know the ways of forgery in documents like check, ID and different aspects of signature, fingerprint etc. Recent events show the vulnerabilities of bank employee in detecting such forgeries, especially detecting forged signature, ID and checks. Hence getting such knowledge regarding such aspects makes banking employee and bank more secure.
 

Fraudulent Behavior with Document and Signature Forgery

For financial institutions, better handling of different types of documents is essential. Technique to communicate with customer legally with good faith is always required in any institutions. Likewise signature verification is basic need for bankers whereas losses due to forged signature are in increasing order. Similarly, trade of counterfeit currency is big threat for our economy. Forensic laboratory is continually receiving such forged documents, cheques as well as currencies. The awareness towards it is essential for bankers.
