Our Financial Risk Management Advisory function provides services to banks, insurance companies, investment services providers, asset managers, financial enterprises and corporate clients to identify and, with adequate regulation and professional management, mitigate the potential financial risks they face. Concerns about financial risk have been increasing both globally and locally. In this climate, it is strategically important for enterprises of all kinds to operate robust financial risk management frameworks that satisfy compliance demands, contribute to better decision making and enhance performance.

Successful companies in the future will reorganize their operations along the concept of “smart digital finance” (SDF). Via our Financial Risk Management services KPMG professionals contribute to implementation through all three areas of SDF: in connection with finance excellence, e.g. by measuring and reporting the significant risks with modern tools; within the topic of financial process management, among others, with the development of credit and counter-party risk management methods; from the viewpoint of digital transformation by developing risk models supplemented by machine learning elements; and also offering solutions for organizational development based on robotic process automation (RPA).

During our work we build on our experiences gained in the past decades and apply the latest technology. While supporting compliance with regulatory requirements we implement approaches that result in economic benefits. Our local clients are served by a team of 25 Financial Risk Management professionals with extensive knowledge of the needs and specialties of the local market, utilizing the global knowledge of KPMG and, where appropriate, involving international specialists in the given professional field.
