EBA Risk Event Taxonomy – What It means for financial institutions
In this episode of the ORX Podcast, host Steve Bishop is joined by Luke Carrivick and John Bosnell to unpack the European Banking Authority’s (EBA) newly published Operational Risk Event Taxonomy. They explore why this update is so significant for financial institutions and how it compares to our own ORX Operational Risk Taxonomy.
The episode highlights ORX’s role in shaping the taxonomy, the practical implications for firms already using our taxonomy, and how new attributes like legal, third party, and ESG risks enhance risk categorisation.
Topics covered:
Challenges and opportunities of the EBA taxonomy
How ORX responded to the new EBA
Practical advice for firms preparing for the transition
Ongoing ORX risk standards for the global industry, including for 2026
