What is Minimizing Conduct Risk?

Moody's Analytics' Minimizing Conduct Risk (MCR) is an essential e-learning course that addresses the root causes of employee misconduct. The course makes employees aware of common, pervasive influences, pressures, and biases that can lead to unethical behavior, and provides guidance on how to overcome them. , MCR begins by defining conduct risk and establishing a foundation for understanding its consequences for clients, the institution, and the employee. It then provides deep awareness – accompanied by many examples from different areas of the institution – of critical factors that contribute to sub-optimal employee behavior. These factors include (i) job-related and outside influences, (ii) job requirements and team pressures, and (iii) heuristics and biases. Finally, the course provides actionable tips and techniques for mitigating, overcoming, or altogether avoiding these influences to minimize conduct risk and its negative impact.

Microlearning: DMS – Business Lending

In distressed markets, financial institutions face both an increase in requests for new credit, and an increase in the volume of missed loan payments, covenant breaches, nonperforming loans, and consequently, provision levels.
