What innovation in risk management is

Innovation and risk

It is not a type of risk but a supporting topic: it applies data models, analytics and new technologies to the identification, measurement and control of risks, and assesses the risks that those same innovations introduce, such as model, data and third-party risks.

How it is measured and quantified

What is measured is the progress of the initiatives and the improvement they bring, together with the risks of the innovations themselves.

  • Portfolio of initiatives

    Number of ideas, proofs of concept, pilots and implementations, and the proportion that moves from one stage to the next.

  • Cycle time

    Time from idea to pilot and to go-live.

  • Value generated

    Measurable improvement over the previous method: model accuracy, reduction in losses or times, cost savings.

  • Model performance

    Predictive power, stability and backtesting of new models before and after implementation.

  • Innovation risk

    Assessment of the model, data, security and third-party risks of each initiative before scaling it.
