Operational resilience

The complete guide to achieving operational resilience.

Resilience is not just about surviving but thriving.

Key information and topics covered 

Operational resilience is an organisation’s overall ability to deliver important business services when disruptive change happens. The combination of COVID-19, the rise in the frequency and magnitude of other major shocks, and attention from financial services regulators have placed operational resilience firmly in the spotlight.

The concept includes, but also goes beyond, the concepts of disaster recovery and business continuity. Rather than just allowing for recovery, operational resilience focuses on prevention and robustness to minimise the likelihood of recovery being required.

“Operational resilience is relevant and important to everyone on the planet. It should form an integral part of any organisation’s risk management framework, and we believe the best solution is to incorporate the complete end-to-end operational resilience process within your ERM system” – David Tattam, Chief Research and Content Officer, Protecht Group.
