Are you exposing your organisation to avoidable financial, legal, and operational risk by failing to systematically assess counterparty risk and collateral management controls? Without a structured, audit-ready framework, you risk undetected exposure to default events, regulatory non-compliance with Basel III, EMIR, and Dodd-Frank, margin call failures, and reputational damage from credit downgrades. The Counterparty Risk and Collateral Management Kit is a comprehensive self-assessment solution that enables risk officers, compliance leads, and financial controllers to rapidly evaluate, benchmark, and strengthen their counterparty risk frameworks, ensuring alignment with global standards and preventing costly breaches before they occur.

How This Helps You
With rising margin call volumes, stricter collateral eligibility rules, and increased counterparty defaults in volatile markets, manual or incomplete risk assessments create dangerous blind spots. This self-assessment gives you the power to conduct an internal audit-grade evaluation of your entire counterparty risk lifecycle, without external consultants. Each of the 1370 questions is designed to uncover hidden exposures, such as unverified CSA terms, inaccurate mark-to-market valuations, or insufficient segregation of collateral. By identifying these gaps early, you reduce the likelihood of margin disputes, avoid regulatory fines (up to 10% of annual revenue under EMIR), and protect trading relationships. Organisations using this kit report a 40% faster audit cycle, 30% improvement in collateral efficiency, and stronger negotiating positions with counterparties due to documented risk posture. Delaying assessment means prolonging exposure, every day without a validated framework increases your organisation’s financial and compliance risk.
Who Is This For?
- Counterparty Credit Risk Managers needing to validate exposure models and stress-test collateral coverage
- Collateral Operations Leads responsible for margin call accuracy and dispute resolution
