An FTS Recognised half-day workshop for financial advisors, wealth managers, and private bankers in Singapore.

FTS Recognized

4 CPD hours

Half Day

Risk management helps financial professionals identify, assess and respond to threats that may affect a client’s financial resilience. These threats can include market volatility, business disruption, regulatory exposure and operational weaknesses. Therefore, effective risk advisory requires more than discussing investment performance.

This half-day risk management course in Singapore equips financial advisers, wealth managers and private bankers with practical risk advisory skills. Participants learn how to assess business vulnerabilities, ask structured questions and discuss risk-mitigation strategies clearly. In addition, they explore how ongoing risk monitoring can support stronger client conversations and more proactive advice.

What is risk management for advisors — and why does it matter now?

Your clients face risks they can’t always see — gaps in business continuity, exposure they haven’t quantified, regulatory obligations they’re unaware of. As their financial advisor, you’re uniquely positioned to surface these risks, frame them clearly, and guide clients toward solutions. But doing this confidently requires a structured approach, not just instinct.

This workshop gives you momenta’s practical risk advisory framework — from initial identification through to ongoing monitoring — applied through immersive role plays, live coaching, and real-world case studies. You’ll leave with tools you can deploy in your next client conversation, and the confidence to position risk management as an ongoing advisory value-add.

What will you walk away with?

By the end of the session, you’ll have a practical, deployable risk advisory toolkit. Specifically, you’ll be able to:

Identify business vulnerabilities through structured risk assessments — moving from reactive problem-solving to proactive risk identification using proven frameworks.

Develop actionable mitigation strategies using risk management frameworks and tools — giving clients robust policies they can adopt immediately.

Articulate the value of continuous risk monitoring to clients in plain language — positioning ongoing advisory as a trust-building relationship, not a compliance requirement.

Lead structured risk conversations using the 8-Step Probing Technique — surfacing underlying risk factors clients often don't identify themselves.

Navigate industry-specific risks in financial services — understanding the regulatory, operational, and advisory risks unique to your professional context.

What does the program cover?

Five modules — each combining practical tools with hands-on role play and case work grounded in real banking and RM scenarios.

Risk Management Fundamentals for Business

Grasp the critical role of risk management in business decision-making — why identifying and managing risk is a strategic advantage, not just a defensive exercise.
Identify and explain the unique risks faced by business-owner clients — distinguishing personal financial risk from operational, market, regulatory, and reputational exposures.
Understand how financial advisors can support and lead risk conversations — positioning yourself as a trusted partner rather than a product provider.

Mastering the Risk Probing Process

Navigate complex client business environments with confidence — approaching risk discovery without overwhelming clients or triggering defensiveness.
Apply the 8-Step Probing Technique — a structured questioning methodology that systematically uncovers underlying risk factors clients may not have identified themselves.

Designing Strategic Risk Mitigation Plans

– Learn practical mitigation techniques — from risk transfer and risk reduction to diversification and contingency planning — and how to communicate their value in client-friendly language.
– Build robust risk frameworks and policies that clients can adopt immediately — giving them a structured, actionable plan rather than abstract recommendations.

Positioning Risk Monitoring as an Ongoing Advisory Tool

Identify and track key business indicators — the early warning signals that tell you when a client’s risk profile is shifting, before it becomes a crisis.
Introduce clients to governance and compliance essentials tailored to their industry — embedding risk awareness into their day-to-day operations, not just annual reviews.

Industry-Focused Risk Awareness

Explore risks unique to the financial services industry — regulatory exposure, conduct risk, data privacy obligations, and the reputational dimensions of advisory practice.
Develop strategies to address these industry-specific risks in your own practice — so you can both model good risk management and advise clients on it with credibility.

Why attend this workshop?

Foundational clarity

Risk management is a topic many advisors feel they should know better than they do. This workshop builds a clear, structured mental model — from risk identification through mitigation to monitoring — giving you a repeatable approach to every client risk conversation.

Practical application

Every module is grounded in realistic client scenarios, immersive role plays, and live coaching. You’ll apply the 8-Step Probing Technique in practice, build a sample mitigation framework, and walk out with tools ready to use in your next client meeting.

Future readiness

Clients — especially business owners — increasingly expect their advisor to raise risk issues proactively. Advisors who do this consistently deepen relationships, expand their mandate, and differentiate themselves in a market where product knowledge alone is no longer a competitive advantage.
