Operational Resiliency in Your Third-Party Ecosystem – Does Your Vendor Resiliency Match Your Own?

With companies increasingly relying on external providers to deliver core functions and operations to the business, it’s important to understand your critical vendors’ resiliency and recovery capabilities. This applies to not only your third parties, but to your fourth parties and beyond. Add the extra dimension of concentration risk, and the need to assess the resiliency and recoverability of your third- and fourth-party providers is even more pronounced.

This webinar explores:

• Operational resiliency and why understanding your critical third and fourth parties is essential
• Types of risk exposure third and fourth parties present
• Recoverability and resiliency: what the regulators expect in:
  • OCC Bulletin 2013-29
  • FFIC – Appendix J
  • Semi-Annual OCC Risk Perspectives
  • EBA Guidelines on outsourcing arrangements
