This year marks the deadline for systemically important banks to submit their first applications to the Bank of Russia to adopt the IRB approach. What has changed since 2020–2022, when the first banks received permission to use it? What challenges might a bank face when implementing the IRB approach today?
How to manage credit risks in a new economic and technological environment. Experts will discuss modern borrower-assessment methods, tools for predicting defaults and ways to improve portfolio returns

Managing non-financial and compliance risks: the leadership perspective
Generative AI is rapidly moving beyond experimentation and becoming embedded in real business processes: customer service, change implementation, document processing, internal operations and automation.
Many organizations still see LLMs as “smart chatbots.” In practice, modern AI systems combine:
– LLMs;
– corporate memory (RAG and embeddings);
– AI agents capable of taking action in IT systems.
The presentation will cover:
Particular attention will be paid to:
The presentation draws on practical experience of implementing generative AI in corporate processes
The present and future of data-driven services
Data analytics: tools and risks
Digitalization of business processes: approaches to risk assessment
AI models and AI agents: risks of use
AI regulation and standardization today and tomorrow
The use of AI in non-financial risk management
Case Study: Examples of digitalizing risk-management processes and tasks
Every organisation deploying AI agents accepts one fact: the agent will make mistakes. The question is not “Will it make a mistake?” but “How often, how much will it cost, and who will notice?”
In this 90-minute session, we will examine agent errors as an engineering problem, grounded in numbers and facts. Why agents make mistakes differently from conventional software and humans: their errors are stochastic, confidently presented and plausible—and why these errors slip through review. How errors compound along a chain of actions, and how this affects system architecture, beyond simply choosing a model.
We will explore practical ways to measure error rates before deployment, rather than after an incident: evaluation harnesses, golden datasets, LLM-as-a-judge and regression testing. We will also look at how to distinguish a credible measurement from a vendor’s claim that “we have 95% accuracy”.
How to assess the economics: error cost × error frequency × detectability, compared with the cost of a human performing the task—and why an agent with a 10% error rate may be cost-effective while one with a 1% error rate may not. How to make errors less costly through architecture: limiting the blast radius, using reversible actions and checkpoints, and adding a second layer of verification.
Participants will leave with a practical “fully automated / copilot / human” decision matrix for automation, a checklist of questions for vendors or internal implementation teams, and an understanding of where automation should not be used.
Who is this seminar for?
This seminar is designed for professionals in risk management, internal control, compliance and operational resilience, as well as executives responsible for procurement decisions, outsourcing business functions and establishing business continuity arrangements.
It will benefit those who already oversee contract performance and manage third-party risks but want to move beyond formal oversight towards a more mature approach to managing dependencies.
Why does this matter now?
The digital environment has made businesses faster and more agile, while also increasing their reliance on external services that often receive insufficient attention within the company.
Today, third-party risk extends beyond monitoring service quality: it directly affects process stability and a company’s ability to continue operating during a disruption.
This topic is particularly relevant to professionals because both regulatory expectations and growing IT dependencies demand a more mature approach to managing outsourcing and third parties.
What will you learn from the seminar?
Participants will develop a clear framework for assessing supplier criticality and establishing monitoring, selecting appropriate risk mitigation approaches at each stage of third-party risk management, and moving from monitoring contractual compliance to managing risks throughout the supplier relationship lifecycle.
Participants will learn to view third-party risk as an integrated part of business resilience management, rather than an isolated issue within the procurement process.
Assistants based on artificial intelligence models are now available free of charge to absolutely everyone who has a smartphone or computer with internet access. The level of their “intelligence” is already so good that they can not only offer you recipes for your favorite dishes or remove shadows from a face in a photo, but also provide an overview of legislation on a given topic or write program code that performs the required task. This creates the prerequisites for your organization’s employees to use AI assistants to solve their work‑related tasks. How many people will think about how safe this is for the organization itself?
At the seminar, we will discuss the main risks associated with uncontrolled use of AI assistants by employees to solve work‑related tasks, and how to manage these risks.
