2022 AGENDA
Crisis is the new norm. Emerging from the pandemic, the world has faced a myriad of unprecedented risks. External factors such as geopolitical risk, digital transformation and climate risk have had a clear impact on the scope of regulation and the remit of the head of operational risk. Never before has it been so important for those focusing on operational risk to keep pace with industry developments as they unfold.
Uniting sell-side firms, buyside firms, regulators, technology providers and consultants, OpRisk Europe is the largest regional event dedicated to operational risk, attracting 150+ experts in operational, cyber, third party, compliance, technology, esg, and enterprise risks. Each year, the operational risk community gathers to find solutions to the pressing challenges facing the industry, witness the newest technical innovations and benchmark excellence.
