Former Head of Enterprise Risk Management/Deputy CRO, ERM at Bank of Georgia

Speaker

Nino’s 19 years career in risk management spans across systemically important listed banks both in emerging and developed markets, the Big Four Consulting (EY, KPMG) and listed multinational companies in Australia. Nino accumulated unique experience in each of the Three Lines [of Defense] as well as external assurance providers/advisors granting her a broad perspective on important risk management matters.

Most recently, Nino led the creation of the first Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) function at Bank of Georgia, the London Stock Exchange listed systemically important bank in Georgia. This entailed strengthening the Risk Culture and the effectiveness of the Three Lines [of Defense - LOD] Model across the organization. In her previous role as the Chief Auditor at the company, Nino modernized the Internal Audit function and influenced the introduction of many innovative, advanced risk management frameworks throughout the Group.

Prior to relocating from Australia, Nino held senior risk management roles in both 1LOD and 2LOD at Westpac Banking Corporation (the second largest bank in Australia) based in Sydney
