As one of the four pillars of the advanced measurement approach, scenario analysis is a major compliance exercise, but it should be much more than this. In times of volatility and uncertain competitive, regulatory and technological environments, scenarios are an important way to assess business resilience.
Just as risk identification is the first step of risk management, scenario identification is the first step of scenario analysis.

These lists are useful, but are no more than a common base: business continuity, data theft, cyber attacks, natural disasters, regulatory breaches, mis-selling, rogue trading... Sounds familiar? Of course it does. Everybody has the same list.
