- RiskSpotlight is a valuable tool to foster a risk-aware culture within our organization. Articles and medium-scale studies have proven to be of a great interest to our OpRisk correspondents. The Portal is presented in a user friendly manner and all information can be viewed through a number of dimensions (risk category, location/region, emerging topics/loss events, etc) which makes it truly easy to be used regularly.
