Watchtower’s risk intelligence suite includes Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), Program Risk Assessment (PRA), Risk Maturity Framework (RMF), FinTech Risk Assessment, and now Risk and Control Self-Assessment (RCSA), offering financial institutions a holistic solution to manage risk.
Watchtower RCSA provides financial institutions and corporate risk departments with the assurance of resilience and longevity, early detection of risks, and a structured approach for implementing effective control measures.
Improved awareness and proactive risk management – integrated within Watchtower, The Holistic Risk Intelligence PlatformTM.
Watchtower RCSA offers:
- Opportunities to identify and examine risks that are specific to each unique institution
- Intuitive tools to develop and test controls that mitigate risks
- Management of any identified gaps using Risk Improvement Activities and Action Plans incorporated into the overall ERM model
- Insight into banks’ enterprise business process via a risk and control register and flexible reporting
Unlike other risk solution providers, Watchtower RCSA is designed to:
- Empower users to take full control of the self-assessment process
- Adapt to any institution, regardless of size or complexity, with features and functions that can be tailored to user requirements
- Create departmental, product, and process hierarchies based on how the organization views risk
- Eliminate the need for multiple-system management, as the RCSA module is built into Watchtower
