Work in a partnership between Risk, Business, Finance, Audit, Alco and Compliance • 6- Don’t count on Models and External Ratings only; count on your own analysis (Return to Basics) • 7- Invest more in resources: • Systems (M.I.S.) • Models • But essentially in People 27 Banking Control Commission Thank You E-Mail: [email protected] 28
