One of those is the fact there is no single instrument to identify and assess non-financial risk, but rather a myriad of different ways of doing it – or at least trying to do it. Hence, financial risk people tend to feel superior to non-financial risk people – as they have this one, powerful(?) tool: a value-at-risk model. In addition to the vision some overarching non-financial risk management divisions might have, the various disciplines (such as compliance, information security, business continuity management and many more) – sometimes driven by very peculiar regulatory requirements – see the need to come up with their own version of, for instance, self-assessment.
Therefore, it is important to understand in detail what a risk and control self-assessment (RCSA) or similar is supposed to achieve, how it relates to scenario analysis, and what added benefit (in addition to being compliant with regulation) stress testing might deliver. All these tools are meant to provide some (qualitative or semi-quantitative) forecast. These should be contrasted (beware of the anchoring effect and other
