Course Overview

Regulators no longer accept intent as evidence of control over predictive financial dashboards. Models supporting this strand of financial and banking practice fail quietly, and usually at the worst moment. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on this part of financial and banking practice are used deliberately. The teaching approach is deliberately practical: participants build a control framework for predictive financial dashboards as they go. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting the wider financial and banking practice agenda, ready to be adapted internally. This programme builds the practice within financial and banking practice from first principles, without padding and without omitting what matters. A common pattern is strong design of predictive financial dashboards paired with weak follow-through. Where this area of financial and banking practice is measured, it improves; where it is only discussed, it drifts. Work concludes with a self-assessment of this aspect of financial and banking practice that participants can repeat annually.
