These risks provide exposing potential losses in strategic decision making within the organizational business economy, rather than creating opportunities. This problem is being made aware of to the Board of Director’s Risk Policy Committee (DRPC), JP Morgan Chase & Co.’s Advisory Board, CRO, CCO, CIO, and CFO respectfully. If left untreated, challenges with uncertainty, principles and methods, and indecisiveness from managers will lead to failure in the risk management and ultimately cause further damage to other vital areas of the company.

Being prepared to deal with a crisis risk event and taking action immediately, as well as identifying and assessing issues and options will be fundamental to decreasing the challenges of risk in financial services and management for JP Morgan Chase & Co.
