WBR October 2026 - Operational Risk 2026: What Regulators Are Really Testing

Written by Priscilla Gaudoin | Oct 6, 2026, 12:37:45 PM

This webinar is for compliance, risk, and governance leaders at banks, insurers, pension providers, hedge funds, asset and wealth managers, and e-money and payment firms regulated by a financial services authority such as the FCA. If you're responsible for demonstrating operational risk to your board or your regulator, this session is built for you. 

What We'll Cover

  1. Why Operational Risk Is Back in the Spotlight - the pressures pushing operational risk back up the regulatory agenda, and why firms can no longer treat it as a background concern.
  2. The UK and EU Regulatory Landscape - how supervisory expectations are evolving on both sides of the Channel, and what that means for firms operating across jurisdictions.
  3. Regulatory Red Flags - the specific issues currently drawing supervisory attention, and the gaps most likely to surface in a review.
  4. Emerging Risks for 2026 - the operational threats moving up firms' risk registers, and how to get ahead of them before they're tested.
