Loss data collection database

Six indispensable fields, including the occurrence-to-detection gap.

A minimal but complete structure: occurrence and detection dates, gross and net amounts, Basel category, root cause, failed control, corrective action and status. The occurrence-to-detection gap is computed automatically — the simplest detection capability indicator to obtain.

How to use it

  • Calibrate the threshold to yield 50 to 300 events a year
  • Collect near misses with no threshold
  • Reject "human error" as a root cause
