Overview

Regulators across the globe are increasingly linking the level of risk a bank assumes to the capital it must hold, and financial institutions are progressively adopting risk-based management practices. As banks, their products, regulations, and the global marketplace grow more complex, the challenges of effective risk management intensify. A critical lesson from the banking crisis of the past five years is that risks are deeply interconnected; to manage them efficiently, banks must comprehend these interactions.

Key features include:

• an explanation of current risk-based regulations
• a detailed review of the major risks banks face
• industry best practices for adopting an enterprise-wide approach to integrate risk management throughout an organization
• using governance techniques to foster a group-wide culture where everyone actively participates in managing risks in line with the bank's strategic objectives
• an exploration of the challenges risk managers may encounter in the future

The course makes extensive use of case studies designed to explore, examine, and reinforce the concepts and ideas covered over the five days. Historical events at banks will be used throughout the course to highlight how they failed to manage their risks and what actions could have been taken to prevent losses.

This instructor-led live training in Nigeria (online or on-site) is aimed at intermediate-level professionals who wish to develop a systematic approach to identifying, analysing, and resolving problems using RCA methodologies.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Understand essential concepts of RCA and continuous improvement cycles.
• Apply different RCA tools to identify the root cause of problems.
• Develop and implement effective problem-solving strategies.
• Integrate RCA into organisational improvement and prevention efforts.

The primary objective of this programme is to shift the audit process from a reactive approach of merely 'finding' faults to a proactive strategy of 'prevention'. By mastering Root Cause Analysis, the Internal Audit team will specifically target the elimination of recurring findings. This ensures that once a weakness is identified, the resulting recommendation offers a permanent solution, thereby protecting the company’s operational efficiency and financial integrity.

Failing to implement structured RCA creates a high-risk environment characterised by:

• Financial Erosion: Unresolved root causes within financial processes result in cumulative financial leakages that escalate over time.
• Resource Wastage: Auditors spend 40% more time re-auditing the same failed controls, rather than focusing on new strategic risks.
• Diminished Authority: Repeatedly reporting the same issues undermines the Audit Division's influence with senior management and auditees.

This instructor-led, live training in Nigeria (online or onsite) is designed for intermediate-level internal auditors who wish to enhance their audit effectiveness by applying structured RCA techniques.

Upon completing this training, participants will be able to:

• Comprehend RCA methodologies and their role in internal auditing.
• Identify and analyse the root causes of audit findings.
• Apply RCA tools such as the 5 Whys, Fishbone Diagram, and Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA).
• Develop corrective and preventive action plans grounded in RCA findings.
• Integrate RCA into the internal audit process to enhance risk management.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level safety professionals and operational managers who wish to enhance their ability to investigate incidents, identify systemic weaknesses, and design effective corrective and preventive actions.
