The toolkit provides definitions and tools to help financial institutions to monitor, identify and manage risks arising from third-party services and financial authorities in their oversight.
The FSB has developed a toolkit for financial authorities and financial institutions for enhancing their third-party risk management and oversight. The toolkit comprises:
- a list of common terms and definitions to improve clarity and consistency regarding third-party risk management across financial institutions, enhancing communication among relevant stakeholders.
- tools to help financial institutions identify critical third-party services and manage potential risks throughout the lifecycle of a third-party service relationship.
- tools for supervising how financial institutions manage third-party risks, and for identifying, monitoring and managing systemic third-party dependencies and potential systemic risks.
The toolkit is designed to complement and build on relevant existing standards and guidance by international standard-setting bodies and financial authorities, but not replace them.
