Stronger Controls. Smarter Risk. Sustainable Compliance.
PGMP.US supports banks, insurers, and asset managers in building, validating, and operationalizing risk frameworks across the three lines of defense.
We work across Risk, Compliance, Ops, and 1LOD to create risk and control programs that are:
-
Clearly owned
-
Properly tiered and documented
-
Supported by metrics
-
Aligned to business activity and regulatory expectations
-
Defensible under audit and during exams
Effective Risk Frameworks That Drive Outcomes
Our teams provide
Current state assessments of RCSA and control structure
We evaluate how your RCSAs, controls, and risk ownership structures operate today — across all three lines of defense.
Rewriting and rationalization of control libraries
We streamline and standardize your control library with updated language, mapped risks, and aligned control types.
Process-level risk identification
We perform detailed walkthroughs to identify operational, compliance, and reputational risks across core processes.
KRI/KCI development and metric hierarchy
We define and structure KRIs/KCIs with thresholds, frequencies, and escalation paths tied to your risk appetite.
Control testing programs and effectiveness ratings
We build and refine control testing methods with scoring frameworks to track control strength and reliability.
Issue closure and documentation
We document closure packages with root cause, corrective actions, evidence, and audit sign-off language.
Remediation playbooks for internal audit findings
We create standardized remediation frameworks with workflows, ownership models, and closure protocols.
Risk-and-control integration into change programs and BAU
We embed risk control design into transformations and help transition sustainable ownership to business teams.
Governance forums and reporting mechanisms
We design risk forums, dashboards, and escalation protocols to give leadership real-time risk transparency.
