Operational Risk Build
Consultants deliver 400-page ERM frameworks that collapse when the regulator asks for evidence they work. I design, implement, staff, and operationalize complete risk functions — operational risk, fraud, internal control, and board committees — across SAMA, CBB, CBO, QFCRA, and CBUAE regimes. I build the real thing.
