Every financial institution is exposed to the risk of criminal activity, both from within its organization and from outside. Losses can have a devastating impact on a financial institution's balance sheet. Banks belong to the most secured institutions in the world. The operational risks of banks are high. During the day-to-day workings, something can go wrong in different places, because of a bad faith client, a fraudulent employee, someone neglecting his duty of care, or simply by giving incorrect advice. You want to protect yourself as well as possible against these risks. Due to the developments like Basel I and Corporate Governance, the Banks are aware of the different risks they are exposed to like no other.
