Operational risk refers to the risk of losses resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, and systems or from external events. It includes legal risk, but excludes strategic and reputational risk. Operational risk events can include internal fraud, external fraud, employment practices, workplace safety, damage to physical assets, business disruptions, system failures, and process management failures. The identification and measurement of operational risk has become a key focus for banks and their regulators due to events like the 9/11 terrorist attacks and trading losses at several large banks. Basel II introduced an operational risk capital charge and categorized operational risk events into seven event types to help banks better manage this important risk.

Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed procedures, systems or policies, employee errors, system failures, frauds or other criminal activities or any event that disrupts business processes. WHAT IS OPERATIONA Operational risk can also be summarized as human risk; it is the risk of business operations failing due to L RISK? human errors. Until Basel II reforms to banking supervision, operational risk was a residual category reserved for risks and uncertainties which were difficult to quantify and manage in traditional ways- the "other risks" basket.

These reasons underscore banks' and supervisors'
growing focus upon the identification and measurement of operational risk. The list of risks faced by banks today includes fraud, system failures, terrorism and employee compensation claims.
OPERATIONA These types of risk are generally classified under the
term 'operational risk'. L RISK BACKGROUN The identification and measurement of operational D risk is a real and live issue for modern-day banks, particularly since the decision by theBasel Committee on Banking Supervision(BCBS) to introduce a capital charge for this risk as part of the new capital adequacy framework (Basel II). Operational risk focuses on how things are accomplished within an organization and not necessarily what is produced within an industry.
FOCUS OF These risks are often associated with active decisions
relating to how the organization functions and what it OPERATIONA prioritizes. L RISK In August 1994, the NASDAQ market had to close for more than half an hour, losing valuable trading time, as an energetic squirrel had gnawed through the power lines supplying the stock market's computer centre in Connecticut.

Contrary to other risks (e.g.credit risk,market
risk,insurance risk) operational risks are not diversifiable and cannot be laid off, meaning that, as long as people, systems and processes remain imperfect, operational risk cannot be fully eliminated.
Wider trends such as globalization, the expansion of
the internet and the rise of social media, as well as the increasing demands for greater corporate accountability worldwide, reinforce the need for proper operational risk management. Basel II divides operational risk into seven different event type categories which are as follow: 1. Internal Fraud:Bribery, intentional mis-marking of positions, tax evasion and mishandling of assets 2. External Fraud:Hacking damage, theft of information, forgery and third-party theft
