Managing Digital Asset and Cryptocurrency Risk for Banks

Course Overview

Models supporting bank digital asset risk fail quietly, and usually at the worst moment. Growth built on poorly controlled asset risk reverses faster than it accumulated. It is pitched for practitioners with responsibility for this aspect of financial and banking practice, not for observers of it. The course gives participants a defensible structure for bank digital asset risk and the judgement to adapt it. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the financial and banking practice discipline that were visible long before the incident. Improvement in asset risk stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what bank digital asset risk has actually achieved. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make asset risk hard in practice. It closes by agreeing the smallest change to this area of financial and banking practice that would make a visible difference.
