Document background
The Asset Management Risk Assessment is a crucial document required under Danish financial regulations for organizations engaged in asset management activities. It serves as a comprehensive evaluation tool for identifying, assessing, and managing various risks associated with investment management operations. The document is mandated by the Danish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finanstilsynet) and must comply with both Danish national regulations and EU directives such as AIFMD and MiFID II. It is typically prepared annually or when significant changes occur in the investment strategy, market conditions, or regulatory environment. The assessment covers various risk categories including market, operational, credit, and liquidity risks, while also addressing emerging areas such as ESG and cybersecurity risks where applicable.
