Recovery and Resolution planning (RRP) helps Banks prepare for the very remote but plausible severe shocks that may threaten our business.  The detailed plans we develop are designed to ensure that customers and the financial system are protected, and that Virgin Money could be successfully restructured if necessary.  Successful RRP planning doesn’t just focus on the financials and requires us to work with many areas of the bank.  The teams’ objectives are to ensure that the RRP capabilities are designed, documented, tested, embedded and continually improved.

• Develop and update relevant documentation for RRP, this includes playbooks, the Recovery Plan and Resolution Self Assessment.
