What the FSA's Market Wide Exercise revealed were concerns about the stability of retail and wholesale payments, as well as the CHAPS supply chain, in the event of a large-scale cyber attack on London's banking network. As a result, banks are looking to improve levels of communication between settlement banks and their supply chain partners.

However, since the exercise last November, the FSA are now concerned that upheaval in the eurozone may coincide within the timeframe of the Olympics.

Finextra and IBM's panel of experts discuss these concerns as well as how firms are moving toward a risk management process that both addresses the myriad types of risk that functions across the organisation face, and encompasses all facets of risk management, from its identification through to mitigation.
