In this course, we will discuss:

Importance of PROGRAM Risk Assessments for Sponsoring/Originating Banks related to Third Party Payment Processing and the requirement for complementary Program Risk Assessments and Internal Controls for Third-Party Payment Processors (including Nested Third-Party Payment Processors).
-
Tips and techniques for effectively creating/updating Program Risk Assessments from existing Internal Controls, such as Policies, Procedures, Training, Agreements, etc
In the second part of Monday's session, participants will be guided through an exercise to glean specific controls from the participants’ own policies, procedures, training, and agreements. Participants are encouraged to bring their laptops and copies of their company’s own controls for an exercise in populating a Program Risk Assessment Template, which will be provided to all participants.
What you will learn:
-
How Program Risk Assessment differs from customer, product, or various compliance risk assessments (e.g., AML Risk Assessment).
-
How risk-based programs are derived from and forever tied to ongoing Program Risk Assessment discipline.
-
How to demonstrate proper oversight and engagement of the Board in the Risk Assessment Process.
-
How to periodically test internal controls and update the Program Risk Assessment.
