SUMMARY:MEFMI Regional Workshop on Operational Risk Management
DESCRIPTION:Language:                  English and Portuguese\n \nBackground\nThe COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the need for developing countries to adopt and implement robust operational risk management tools and frameworks in all areas of macroeconomic management, including public debt. Operational risk is defined as “the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events” (BIS, 2003). Following the outbreak of the pandemic in 2019 and the adoption of travel restrictions by countries, most debt management functions and operations were put on hold or partially implemented as staff worked from home. These measures limited the debt managers’ access to debt management systems to record transactions, process debt payments, and validate debt data. In some countries, auctions of domestic securities were affected and analytical work such as debt sustainability analysis could not be conducted. The absence of business continuity plans created a significant risk to effective public debt management in most countries.\n \nAgainst this background, MEFMI will conduct a workshop on Operational Risk Management to help member counties deal with disruptions in debt management operations, which may occur due to unforeseen events such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The workshop will provide a practical step-by-step process of developing business continuity plans.\n \nObjectives \n\nTo introduce participants to the main issues in public debt operational risk management; and\nTo impart knowledge and practical skills for designing business continuity plans in debt management.\n\n \nCourse Content\n\nOverview of public debt management;\nOperational risk management frameworks, strategies, tools and techniques in debt management;\n\n\nDeveloping and implementing an operational risk management framework for debt management; and\n\n\nBusiness continuity and disaster recovery planning in debt management.\n\n \nTarget Audience \nMid-level to senior staff in debt management offices of the Ministries of Finance and Economic Planning as well as Central Banks.\n \n
