In the banking sector, Enterprise Risk Management continue to be seen an increase in regulatory requirements, as well as audit scrutiny. A side effect of this is that many different risk management initiatives but related management programmes are being tied into a common point of conversation: operational risk management. Sharon will discuss how BCM is being synthesised under the umbrella of operational risk management — from the common points between operational risk management and business continuity to the benefits of uniting these programmes.
Sharon started her career in banking 33 years ago. Her experience and exposure covers both front line, middle office and operations primarily in commercial and investment banking. Her main expertise is in Risk Management although she has also spent many years in Treasury as well as several years in Retail banking. In her working experience of more than 20 years in a large local bank, Sharon has also covered Islamic banking, stock broking, asset management as well as insurance business. Currently she is the head of risk management of a locally incorporated foreign bank. Sharon holds a Masters Degree in Business Administration and is also a Certified Business Continuity Planner.
