This webinar is hosted in partnership with Third Party Risk Association (TPRA)
Live from September 16th 2026:
Drawing on the joint CeFPro and TPRA Global Emerging TPRM Benchmark Report, this webinar will examine how third-party risk is changing as organisations become more dependent on critical technology providers, complex supply chains, AI-enabled vendors and interconnected fourth- and Nth-party ecosystems.
The discussion will move beyond emerging-risk awareness to the practical actions TPRM leaders can take now. Panellists will explore where programmes are struggling with unclear ownership, limited supplier transparency, point-in-time assessments and the challenge of turning monitoring data into timely decisions.
With a strong financial-services lens but globally relevant cross-industry insight, the webinar will cover governance, operational resilience, cyber exposure, AI risk and ongoing oversight. It will help attendees consider how to prioritise resources, strengthen accountability and build more resilient third-party programmes without creating an unmanageable control burden.
Attendees will gain a practical understanding of the emerging risks most likely to affect third-party programmes over the next two years, informed by the CeFPro and TPRA benchmark findings.
They will learn how to:
- Identify where ownership, visibility and governance gaps may be creating unmanaged exposure.
- Focus continuous monitoring on material risk, rather than simply generating more data and dashboards.
- Assess AI-enabled vendors and use automation within TPRM without losing accountability or human judgement.
- Improve coordination between TPRM, cyber, resilience, legal, procurement and senior leadership.
- Prioritise practical next steps for more resilient, transparent and scalable third-party oversight.
