BlackIce Enterprise Risk Management Inc. (BlackIce) is a group of senior practitioners in the banking risk analysis and risk management space. It all started with Basel in the early 00’s. Banks needed processes and technology solutions to meet their regulatory requirements.

Over the course of many engagements at many global financial institutions, large and small, we discovered that we were deploying the same process at each bank.

The business processes of banking are very similar, everywhere in the world. The objectives and mandates of regulators of financial institutions is the same; to provide the necessary guidance to ensure the stability of the global financial infrastructure. This comes down to requiring banks to have a very good handle on their appetite for risk and a good framework for measuring their risk. Interestingly, this requirement gave financial institutions the tools they need to run their banks better.

As a result of this knowledge and experience, we have created technology solutions, and the accompanying business processes, to meet the needs of banks in pursuit of achieving the most successful banking model and at the same time supporting them in their compliance requirements.
