When thinking about risk, we often focus on immediate issues rather than longer-term, emerging risks. Drawing on the discussion at the recent webinar held to mark the partnership between the Centre for Governance, Risk and Regulation at the London Institute of Banking and Finance and the Risk Coalition, Hanif Barma explains that it is worth revisiting and reviewing existing risks as today’s uncertain environment means that these may now crystallise at more rapidly, or the impact and exposures of these risks may no longer be what we originally thought them to be.
