BNM RMiT Compliance (Risk Management in Technology)
RMiT is not a short document, and the parts that cause trouble at examination are rarely the ones institutions spend their time on. Bank Negara reissued the policy document in a revised form in November 2025, tightening expectations on resilience and third-party arrangements. This day translates the policy into a control set with named owners and evidence requirements, then works through where institutions most often find themselves unable to demonstrate what they have in fact been doing.
Programme Agenda
Scope, Proportionality and Self-Assessment
Which institutions the policy binds, how the enhanced requirements attach to larger and more complex institutions, and the self-assessment that determines where you sit. Applying proportionality without using it as an excuse.
Technology Risk Governance
Board and senior management accountability, the risk management function's role, technology risk appetite, and the reporting that has to reach the board rather than stop at a committee.
The Technology Risk Management Framework
Risk identification, assessment and treatment applied to technology assets. Keeping the framework connected to the enterprise risk framework instead of running it as a parallel exercise.
Cyber Security Requirements
Control expectations across access management, network security, cryptography, security operations and incident response. Mapping them to what you already run so gaps surface rather than duplicate work.
Technology Operations and Resilience
Change management, capacity, availability targets, data centre and cloud arrangements, backup and recovery. Demonstrating resilience rather than asserting it.
Third Party and Cloud Arrangements
Assessment before engagement, contractual requirements, ongoing oversight, concentration risk, and access for the institution and the regulator. The area where findings cluster most reliably.
Incident Notification and Reporting
What has to be reported to Bank Negara, on what timing, and in what form. Running RMiT notification alongside any PDPA or Act 854 duty triggered by the same event.
Gap Assessment Workshop
Participants score their own institution against the requirement set, separate genuine control gaps from evidence gaps, and leave with a prioritised remediation list.
