Peter Koning wanted to deepen his knowledge and experience, so after completing his bachelor's degree in Business Administration, he completed a master's in Econometrics. He then looked for a workplace that could offer the right mix of quantitative and qualitative work, as well as responsibility and freedom. And he found that at the bank. 'I'm glad to be back.'
The world's changing at an ever faster pace, and we’re living in economically challenging times. As a result, financial risk assessment is becoming ever more complex and important. That’s why ABN AMRO has chosen a comprehensive risk-management strategy. It’s imperative that all our employees thoroughly understand the risks at play within their field. But they also need to understand that it's not a question of avoiding risk altogether, but rather of carefully considering which risks we can consciously take. And doing this, naturally, in consultation with all the stakeholders within the bank. So, risk management is not just an elite sport, it's also a team sport.
