Financial Risk Training

On February 26, 2026, the Financial Risk Team at the Myanmar Citizens Bank (MCB) Sule (Head Office) conducted a training session for new joiners, specifically Customer Service Associates (CSAs) and Tellers.
The session focused on the nature and significance of Credit Risk, Liquidity Risk, and Market Risk, which are among the seven core risk management guidelines issued by the Central Bank of Myanmar (CBM).
Objectives of the Training
The training was designed to ensure that frontline staff understand and appreciate the following critical aspects of risk management:

  • To ensure that employees recognize that banks are inherently exposed to various risks during their operations.
  • To highlight that failure to adequately manage these risks can lead to significant financial losses.
  • To explain how unmanaged risks can reduce profitability and the bank’s capital
  • To highlight that these risks can lead to the loss of customer deposits and ultimately pose a threat to the overall stability of the financial system.
