APRA’S Proposal on Operational Risk Management Requirements Updates

On 17 July 2023, the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (“APRA“) released the Prudential Standard CPS 230 for Operational Risk Management (“CPS 230“), along with a consultation draft of the Practice Guide CPG 230 for Operational Risk Management. The main objective of CPS 230 is to minimise disruptions to critical operations by mandating that organisations establish robust risk management frameworks. This is achieved through several key measures, including…
