Riskraft Consulting Limited last week announced that it had won a contract
with the Mauritius Financial Services Commission to implement a Risk Based Supervision
System based on international standards for all its regulated entities.
Commenting on the partnership, Subramanya Kusnur, MD and CEO of Riskraft, a
Financial Technologies Group Company, says, “Our unique knowledge partnership
model has been a clear differentiator in qualifying and winning the FSC engagement.
This is a very prestigious engagement and will result in a unique model, leveraging
the right blend of technology, domain expertise and strong experience, thereby
redefining supervision.”
Dr Ashok Nag, Riskraft’s Chief Consulting Officer adds, “Riskraft
is committed to deliver a complete solution that will enable FSC to undertake
not only a post facto multi-dimensional analysis of risk profiles of its regulated
entities but also a prospective detection and analysis of incipient vulnerabilities
of regulated entities that lead to a systematic risk."
The Financial Services Commission said: “FSC is committed to promoting
Mauritius as an International Financial Center of repute and as an integrated
regulator for all non-banking financial services. It seeks to continuously improve
the supervisory framework for all licenses. The RBS will be another significant
step in this direction.”
Riskraft will execute the project on a turnkey basis by first customizing its
proprietary RBS framework to the business and regulatory environment of Mauritius.
It will then build and install a complete browser based risk intelligence system
for FSC. The uniqueness of Riskraft’s system lies in its ability to measure
and monitor the quality of a risk governance structure obtaining in regulated
entities through an appropriately calibrated and validated risk governance index.
This in turn will help the system create an early warning system for FSC to
take Prompt Corrective Action.
