✨ Why is Proper Onboarding Crucial for Risk Management in Banking?
In the banking industry, where regulations are strict, and customer trust and business stability are paramount, onboarding new employees plays a crucial role in the long-term success of an institution. A well-structured onboarding program is not just a formality – it is the foundation of effective risk management and regulatory compliance.
Digitalization, agility, and proactive learning have become key factors in adapting the onboarding process. A clearly defined strategy enables employees to quickly acquire essential knowledge, understand processes, and identify potential risks, thereby reducing operational errors and ensuring the long-term stability of the bank.
What does an onboarding process in risk management look like?
⌚ The onboarding process for new employees is designed to last 50 hours or 7 weeks, with weekly training time 7 hours in average.
🎓 The implementation of the onboarding process is flexible—online, on-site, off-site, or hybrid, fully aligned with client needs. While we prefer in-person sessions where employees are away from their workstations, this approach enhances focus and concentration on acquiring new knowledge.
Key Outcomes Expected After Completing the Program:
✅ Understanding of the banking sector
✅ Knowledge of bank operations
