Abstract: We presented our Working Paper Series No.1 (WPS1) "Measuring Operational Risk in Major Japanese Banks" on the web-site of Financial and Payment System Office of the Bank of Japan in July 2000. The purpose of this paper (WPS3) is to summarize the responses we have received on our earlier paper (WPS1) and to delineate our thoughts on those comments. Our thoughts are based on best practices and methodologies regarding how to measure market and credit risks. After our first paper was put on the web-site, we received a lot of comments and questions on the paper. These comments and questions indicate that method of operational risk measurement is not only developing at present but also going to be enhanced in an accelerated pace in the near future. In order to make this momentum more robust and secured, we believe that it is important to share views on operational risk measurement among regulators, banks, and related industries. Thus, we welcome any further comments or questions on our papers (WPS1 and WPS3). We will answer these questions on the paper (WPS1) as much as possible.
