Operational Risks are defined under the Basel Capital Accord as "the risks of direct or indirect loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people, systems or from external events."

The Basel Capital Accord is to be implemented latest by 2007. All ‘big’ financial institutions must have a Basal – II compliant Risk Management System. The objective is to ensure that there is industry-wide monitoring of operational risk with creation of an environment where there is a minimum capital requirement for those institutions with sound operational risk controls.

Under this Project (done for a big US based Financial Firm) an integrated suit of tools were developed which enabled the Firm’s line of businesses to record and measure their Operational Risks and then generate capital figures based on the data collected over the years. It was developed around the specification of Basal-II and Serbanes Oxley Act.
