| Banks frequently introduce new products and services and/or modify existing products and services in normal course of business. These new or modified products and services could expose the banks or the financial system as a whole to new risks or could amplify existing risks. Therefore, the risks posed by the introduction and/or modification of products and services must be identified, assessed, monitored and managed appropriately by the banks. | ||
