Course Overview
Regulators no longer accept intent as evidence of control over banking internal control systems. In finance the difference between a healthy position on control systems and a dangerous one is often a single assumption. Buying a tool rarely fixes the practice within financial and banking practice; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. The course gives participants a defensible structure for banking internal control systems and the judgement to adapt it. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about this aspect of financial and banking practice under scrutiny. It is written for people who have to make control systems work with the resources they already have. The programme uses small-group work so that each participant's treatment of banking internal control systems is examined, not just described. Organisations that document control systems properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to the financial and banking practice capability that would make a visible difference.
