Trigarc

Trigarc Modules

Maintain a live enterprise risk view with enforceable ownership, KRIs, and escalation paths.

Trigarc Risk identifies, assesses, treats, and monitors enterprise risk—with configurable scoring, AML/CFT & fraud controls, and feeds into Audit and Compliance.

What it actually does

  • Runs risk identification through GRC Champions with Functional Lead and GRC Manager approval into the register.
  • Assesses risks with a configurable 7-criteria weighted scoring model and auto-classified heat maps.
  • Tracks mitigation actions with owners, target dates, and progress monitoring.
  • Monitors KRIs in real time with threshold alerts, trend analysis, and executive dashboards.
  • Feeds audit planning priorities to Trigarc Audit and links obligations in Trigarc Compliance.

Who uses it

  • Chief Risk Officer and GRC Manager
  • GRC Champions (departmental risk identification)
  • Functional Leads (first-level approval)
  • Risk analysts
  • Board risk committee support teams

  4. 04Monitor progress and update residual risk based on treatment evidence.

KRI breach response

  1. 01Ingest KRI values from source systems or uploaded periodic templates.
  2. 02Trigger amber/red alerts when thresholds are breached.
  3. 03Create response actions with accountable owners and review deadlines.
  4. 04Escalate unresolved breaches to executive risk forums.

Threshold-driven escalation

KRI breaches trigger predefined response workflows and escalation policies with full audit history.

Regulator-aligned risk reporting

Pre-built dashboards plus custom report builder with scheduled PDF and Excel exports for board and supervisor review.

Integrated GRC workflow

Champion → Functional Lead → GRC Manager approval chain with higher roles able to create directly when appropriate.

Extended capabilities

AML, CFT & fraud risk

Risk-based ML/TF and fraud controls aligned to FATF and the Proceeds of Crime and Anti-Money Laundering Act.

  • Enterprise-wide ML/TF risk assessment across customers, products, channels, and geographies
  • Dynamic customer risk rating with PEP, adverse media, and beneficial ownership profiling
  • Transaction monitoring scenarios for structuring, layering, and unusual activity
  • Fraud taxonomy, control mapping, residual risk scoring, and loss event tracking
  • Real-time sanctions screening against UN, OFAC, EU, and local watchlists
  • SAR/STR case management with secure FRC filing and regulator-ready evidence packs

Example use cases

  • A microfinance lender tracks portfolio-at-risk KRIs across operating regions and escalates red thresholds to credit leadership within 24 hours.
  • An insurer maintains underwriting, claims, reinsurance, and investment risk templates with configurable insurance-specific scoring.
  • A bank runs enterprise ML/TF assessments and SAR workflows aligned to POCAMLA requirements.

Measurable outcomes

  • 25-45% faster monthly risk reporting cycles.
  • Earlier breach detection through automated KRI thresholds and alerts.
  • Reduced duplicate risk tracking effort across Risk, Audit, and Compliance teams.
