- **Country Risk Analysis**: Perform an in-depth analysis of country-specific risks, including political, economic, and regulatory conditions, and historical data on financial crime in the regions where the bank operates.
- **Inherent Risk Identification**: Provide a clear outline of the inherent risks identified across customer base, geographical regions, products and services, and international transactions.
- **Control Assessment**: Evaluate the bank’s existing internal controls and processes to mitigate the identified risks, including compliance measures, anti-money laundering (AML) programs, and fraud prevention mechanisms.
- **Residual Risk Evaluation**: Assess the residual risks after control measures are applied. Evaluate the effectiveness of the bank’s current risk management strategies and identify any remaining vulnerabilities.
- **Findings and Recommendations**: Provide a comprehensive report detailing the key findings of the assessment, along with actionable recommendations to address identified weaknesses and enhance risk management processes.

**Qualifications**:
