Risk |
Trend |
Description |
Externally driven |
||
Geopolitical and
macroeconomic risks
|
~ |
Our operations and portfolios are subject to risks arising from political instability, civil unrest and military conflict, which may
lead to disruption of our operations, physical risk to our staff, and/or physical damage to our assets. We are also subject to
macroeconomic risks, which may drive changes to our income growth and asset quality. Heightened geopolitical and
macroeconomic risk globally, including uncertainty in international trade policy, is subject to close monitoring and review.
|
Technology and
cybersecurity risk
|
~ |
There is an increased risk of service disruption or data loss arising from technology failures or malicious activity by internal or
external threat actors. This is driven by a rapidly evolving external threat environment, where AI is enabling cyber activity to
become faster and more scalable across both direct and third-party channels. We continue to monitor changes to the
technology and threat landscape, including those arising from ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic events and the impact
these may have on risk management. We operate a continuous improvement programme to help support the resilience and
stability of our technology operations and counter a fast-evolving and heightened cyber threat environment, including in
response to frontier AI models.
|
Environmental, social
and governance
(‘ESG’) risks
|
~ |
We are subject to ESG risks, including in relation to climate change, nature and human rights. These risks have increased due to
diverging national and political agendas, a more complex and prescriptive regulatory environment across the jurisdictions we
operate in, as well as the increasing frequency of severe weather events across the globe. Financial institutions’ actions and
investment decisions in respect of ESG matters continue to be subject to heightened scrutiny by stakeholders. Failure to meet these
evolving expectations may have financial and non-financial impacts, including reputational, legal and regulatory compliance risks.
|
Financial crime risk |
~ |
We are exposed to financial crime risk from our customers, staff and third parties engaging in criminal activity. The financial
crime risk environment is heightened due to increasingly complex geopolitical challenges, the macroeconomic outlook, the
complex and dynamic nature of sanctions and export control compliance, evolving financial crime regulations, rapid
technological developments, an increasing number of national data privacy requirements and the increasing sophistication of
fraud. As a result, we will continue to face the possibility of regulatory enforcement and reputational risk.
|
Digitalisation and
technological
advances risk
|
~ |
Developments in technology and the evolving regulatory environment continue to enable new entrants to the banking industry as
well as new products and services offered by competitors. This challenges us to continue to innovate with new digital capabilities
and evolve our products, to attract, retain and best serve our customers. Along with opportunities, new technology, including
generative and agentic AI, can introduce risks and disruption. We seek to manage technology developments with appropriate
controls and oversight.
|
Evolving regulatory
environment risk
|
} |
The regulatory and compliance risks are set against continued geopolitical risk and regulatory focus on operational resilience,
resolvability, prudential requirements, financial reporting and data, ESG, conduct, as well as sound risk and financial crime risk
management practices. The approach to regulation is increasingly fragmented, including in relation to AI and digital assets, and a
trend towards deregulation has emerged in some jurisdictions, concurrently with regulatory actions to support business growth.
|
Internally driven |
||
Data risk |
} |
We use data to serve our customers and run our operations, often in real-time within digital experiences and processes. If our
data is not accurate and timely, our ability to serve customers, operate with resilience or meet regulatory requirements could
be impacted. We seek to ensure that non-public data is kept confidential, and that we comply with the growing number of
regulations that govern data privacy and cross-border movement of data.
|
Risks arising from the
receipt of services
from third parties
|
~ |
We procure goods and services from a range of third parties. In the current macroeconomic and geopolitical climate, the risk
of service disruption in supply chains is elevated, partly due to an industry-wide increase in supply chain cyber threats. We
continue to strengthen our controls, oversight and risk management policies and processes to select and manage third parties,
including our third parties’ own supply chains, particularly for key activities that could affect our operational resilience.
|
Model risk |
} |
Model risk arises whenever business decision-making includes reliance on models. We use models in both financial and non-
financial contexts, as well as in a range of business applications. Evolving regulatory requirements and enhanced expectations
continue to drive changes to the way model risk is managed across the banking industry, with a particular focus on capital and
credit loss models. New technologies, including generative AI, are driving a need for enhanced model risk controls.
|
Strategic execution
risk
|
~ |
Successful execution of our strategy enables us to help address the swiftly changing needs of our customers and
stakeholders. We are committed to enhancing the effectiveness of strategic execution risk controls and monitoring. This will
help us minimise disruptions during a period of heightened execution risk, driven by the complexity and scale of ongoing
strategic, regulatory and technological change.
|
Risks associated with
workforce capability,
capacity and
environmental factors
with potential impact
on growth
|
} |
Our businesses, functions and geographies are exposed to risks associated with employee retention and talent availability, the
evolving skills requirements of our workforce, and compliance with employment laws and regulations. The skills required
across the workforce continue to evolve in response to ongoing strategic, regulatory and technological change, increasing the
need for timely upskilling and reskilling to maintain capability and capacity. Voluntary attrition across the Group remains
stable, but failure to manage these risks may impact the delivery of our strategic objectives or lead to regulatory sanctions or
legal claims, and the risks are heightened during the implementation of organisational change.
