Case Study: Global Bank achieves timely, enterprise-wide visibility into top risks and optimizes risk-reward outcomes with MetricStream

Global Bank Optimizes Risk-reward Outcomes With Timely Visibility Into Top Organizational Risks

A global bank struggling with scale, geographic dispersion, and regulatory pressure found its risk posture fragmented and slow to surface. Legacy, siloed systems and inconsistent taxonomies forced manual aggregation, produced delayed reports, and captured only about 60% of risk findings—making it hard for executives and the board to identify emerging threats or make timely decisions.

The bank implemented MetricStream’s integrated risk management solution to create a single source of truth with standardized taxonomies, dashboards, automated rankings (re-assessed on seven criteria), and workflows that roll up risks to senior leaders. Deployed across 90% of its countries with 10,000+ users, the solution improved visibility into emerging and material risks, accelerated reporting, increased automation, and strengthened business resilience and decision-making.
