Five real-time risk blind spots to fix in 2026
As markets head into 2026, financial institutions face an environment shaped by persistent volatility, geopolitical shocks, liquidity stress and growing operational complexity. Traditional end-of-day risk controls were never designed to manage risk at today’s speed—or across increasingly automated, interconnected systems.
This whitepaper from 3forge outlines five critical dimensions where real-time risk management has become essential, spanning pre-trade controls, counterparty exposure, portfolio concentration, intraday risk and enterprise-wide operational and reputational threats. Drawing on recent market disruptions and real-world risk events, it shows how delays in visibility can quickly translate into outsized losses.
The paper is essential reading for risk managers, trading desks, operations leaders and technology teams across banks, asset managers, hedge funds and market-makers.
