CROs Warn That Agility and Resilience Now Define Competitive Advantage
OSB Group’s Hassan Kazmi, Barclays’ Victoria Stubbs, and Monzo Europe’s Hannah Sarraf reveal why prediction is obsolete in today’s volatile environment in their panel discussion at Risk Evolve 2026. They explore how resilience, scenario discipline, and customer centric risk management help financial institutions navigate geopolitical shocks, AI risks, and operational fragility, while strengthening board understanding and organisational agility.

The panel
underscores a hard truth: prediction is no longer a viable risk strategy. With
“unprecedented” shocks arriving on a near‑constant cycle, resilience has become
the defining capability for financial institutions. Hassan Kazmi, Victoria
Stubbs, and Hanna Sarraf emphasise that scenario discipline, reverse stress
testing, and crisis simulations matter less for their outputs and more for the
organisational muscle they build. These tools expose vulnerabilities early,
strengthen decision‑making, and prepare firms to absorb and recover from shocks
no one can foresee.
