Capital One has taken a number of actions to strengthen risk
management and governance
•
Declared risk management to be a strategic imperative in 2002
“Embrace formal controls and governance to enable continued successful growth”
• Build a state of the art risk management process
• Make effective process controls commonplace
• Create a culture that values “Managed Risk Taking”
•
Created independent Credit Risk Management and Enterprise Risk
Management functions (headed by Peter Schnall and Laura Olle)
•
Implemented a new governance structure in 2003, including Executive
Committee and five sub-committees
6
We’ve established a risk management style that best fits
our culture
‘Top Down’ Risk Management Style
‘Bottom Up’ Risk Management Style
 Strategy and process defined from
‘the center’
 Implementation of the strategy
performed by associates from ‘the
center’
 Monitoring and control are the
responsibility of the ‘the center’
 Strategy and process determined at
business area level
 Implementation of the strategy
performed by business area
associates
 Risk monitoring and control are the
responsibility of the business area
‘Integrated’ Management Style
Best Fit
 Strategy and process defined by the center, in
collaboration with business areas
 Implementation of the strategy performed by
business area associates with corporate
support
 Risk monitoring and control are the
responsibility of the business area

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) function
•
Followed a structured process with leadership, oversight and involvement
by senior management and the Board

Considered current risk management capabilities

Assessed industry best practices and regulatory expectations
•
Involved external subject matter experts in risk management
and regulatory matters

risk

standards to enable
business areas to assess
and manage their own risk

Capital One took a holistic approach to risk
ERM process looks at all aspects of risk, including:

Market
Liquidity

Reputation
Establishing these categories helps assure that all risks are considered and that
information about significant risks from different business areas, processes, and
geographic areas can be aggregated and reported to support our enterprise-wide
risk management program.

Accountable for managing
risk and following the
defined approach
Test and validate controls
and that the approach is
being followed
We faced challenges in working disciplined risk management
into our culture
Our organizational personality was geared towards entrepreneurialism
–
Historical aversion to formalized structure
–
Company was evolving from “start-up” to complex Fortune 200 organization
Leadership support and local ownership of risk have helped us overcome
these challenges
Keys to success

We continue to consider ways to further drive the use of riskrelated measures
•
Position reporting (credit exposure, liquidity, ALCO, etc.)
•
Loss experience (operational loss events, NACO, delinquencies)
•
Monitoring of risks and controls (KRIs)
•
Stress testing
•
NPV/IRR
•
Proactive measures (self assessments)
•
Risk-based performance measures
•

SVA (Shareholder Value Added)

Long-term benefits of implementing ERM
