GCOR Conference 2023
Join us virtually to discover how to identify and assess climate risks that could expose banks with the innovative XOI method.

Cyber Attack
In the XOI methodology, a scenario is analyzed by identifying the resources exposed to an event, their degree of vulnerability to that event, and the factors and circumstances that can affect the cost of that event if it hits one of the exposed units.
This short video explains this on a Cyber attack scenario.
MSTAR scenario of the month
Anti-Competitive and Manipulative Practices
This month, the "MSTAR Bank" board discusses the "Anti-competitive and manipulative practices" scenario, covering cases such as LIBOR or FX cartel. This is an example of conduct risk addressed by a common model structure based on the breakdown of exposed income. The board will also discuss the value of a comparative assessment of controls for this type of risks. This benchmarking will be made possible by the interoperability of services on the ORX Association iDP Platform.
MSTAR scenario of the month
Trading Error
This month let's explore the quantification of this scenario through a wizard and what-if simulations, plus a sneak peek at the concept of the Exposure Table.
Find an in-depth explanation in our book (Operational Risk Modeling in Financial Services: The Exposure, Occurrence, Impact Method), Chapter IV, §10 "IV.10 A step towards Oprisk Metrics" .
Exciting news! MSTAR is now an ORX Association Innovation Data Platform (iDP) partner

To help U.S. financial institutions navigate the emerging climate-related regulations and risk environment, the American Bankers Association and its partner MSTAR are conducting this annual survey to assess and compare the practices of different institutions in addressing climate risk.
Read moreMSTAR/ABA online training: Financial Risk: Structured Scenario Analysis Series.
This webinar series introduces participants to exposure-based methods in operational risk, and explores a robust and structured method of developing scenarios and assessing the associated loss estimates. The new concepts will be applied to cyber risk scenarios. The structured scenario analysis (SSA) method has been in use for more than 10 years at large institutions and has received an “Industry Initiative” award from risk.net for its application to forward-looking risk measurement.
