Closing the gap between awareness and action
Most institutions know the risks. Few are equipped to act on them.
Geopolitical instability, interest rate volatility and regulatory pressure are reshaping how risk professionals think about balance sheet management. But many institutions are struggling with the gap between awareness and action. In The State of Systemic Risk 2026 report by CeFPro® and supported by FIS®, explore the new risk landscape and discover how to move from insight to decision with confidence.
Scattered risk data leaves you exposed
Companies point to cost, siloed data and legacy technology as factors that keep them from running more frequent enterprise-wide stress testing. Here’s what’s CeFPro found in a survey of 166 risk professionals about their risk concerns and the technology they’re using to manage it.
Fragmented systems hide your real exposure
Only 13% of institutions report a fully integrated view across risk, capital, liquidity and earnings.
Geopolitical risk stays unmodeled
Just 10% quantitatively model geopolitical scenarios and link them to balance sheet impacts.
Stress testing struggles to drive decisions
More than half (52%) question whether stress testing meaningfully influences business decisions.
Data doesn’t move on its own
Only 13% of institutions say more than three-quarters of their risk data flows automatically between systems.

Insight on Emerging Risks: Governance, AI, Transparency, Monitoring & Future Readiness
New Global Research Report
Third-party risk teams are under growing pressure to manage emerging risks across AI, cyber, data security and increasingly complex supply chains.
But are current TPRM processes keeping pace?
In a new global study, CeFPro and TPRA explore how organizations are responding to emerging third-party risks — and where gaps in governance, assessment, monitoring and accountability remain.
Discover:
✓ Why AI/ML embedded in vendor solutions is now the leading emerging TPRM concern
✓ The biggest challenges facing third-party risk assessments, from vendor transparency to the pace of change
✓ Why only 13% of organizations have fully integrated emerging risks into TPRM
✓ Where responsibility for third-party risk sits — and why ownership remains fragmented
✓ The priorities shaping the next two years of TPRM
Download the report to explore the latest benchmark on third-party risk management and discover how organizations can strengthen governance, connect lifecycle oversight and build greater confidence in their approach to emerging risk.
We’re conducting this research to understand how financial institutions are responding to a rapidly evolving systemic risk landscape, shaped by AI, cyber threats, and geopolitical disruptions. The final report will build a clear picture of how risk priorities are shifting, where capability gaps persist, the maturity of AI governance and depolyment models, and institutional readiness to manage systemic risks.
We’re conducting this research in collaboration with TPRA to explore how organizations are managing the growing complexity of third-party risk as AI, evolving regulation, and interconnected supply chains continue to reshape the risk landscape. The final report will provide a clearer picture of how firms are identifying and prioritizing emerging risks, strengthening governance and accountability, and evolving their approaches to oversight, monitoring, and innovation across third-party ecosystems.
