The supervision of risk culture has been an elevated area of strategic focus for APRA (Australian Prudential Regulation Authority) in recent years and is a key part of APRA’s ‘transforming governance, risk culture, remuneration and accountability’ community outcome outlined in its Corporate Plan.
As supervising risk culture requires different skill- sets and approaches compared to traditional areas of prudential regulatory focus, APRA has established a specialist Risk Culture team which has enabled APRA to enhance its focus on risk culture through a broad range of activities. These activities include: the development of a risk culture framework, the roll-out of a risk culture benchmarking survey, the completion of a number of deep dive reviews of entities, and the up-skilling of supervisors in how to assess an entity’s risk culture. The team has also harnessed a range of innovative tools such as natural language processing and developed a risk culture transformation toolkit to help embed risk culture change in the long-term.
