Richard Toledo, Risk & Compliance Practice Leader at RGP
Risk and governance priorities have moved rapidly up the agenda for CFOs and CIOs alike as organizations accelerate adoption of AI, modernize core systems, and expand their digital footprints. These changes are creating new regulatory, operational, and data governance challenges that require integrated risk strategies spanning finance, technology, and operations.
"Risk management today is no longer confined to compliance functions; it sits at the center of enterprise transformation," said Scott Rottmann, President of Consulting Services at RGP. "As organizations adopt AI and modernize their technology environments, leaders must ensure that governance, controls, and risk visibility evolve alongside innovation. Richard brings deep experience helping organizations strengthen their risk frameworks while enabling transformation to move forward responsibly."
Organizations today face growing pressure to modernize governance frameworks while managing cybersecurity exposure, evolving regulatory expectations, and the operational risks associated with fragmented systems and data environments. At the same time, many companies are navigating limited internal resources to support large-scale transformation initiatives, regulatory programs, and control remediation efforts.
By pairing risk and compliance consulting expertise with scalable on-demand talent solutions, RGP helps organizations address peak workloads, regulatory deadlines, and transformation-related risk initiatives with greater agility.
In this role, Toledo will lead RGP's capabilities across enterprise risk management, internal audit, regulatory compliance and controls, and SOX. The practice will also support organizations in developing responsible AI governance frameworks, strengthening model risk management, and establishing the policies, controls, and oversight structures required to scale AI safely and responsibly.
"Effective risk governance is table stakes," said Toledo. "But the risks we're watching most closely right now are the ones no one has on their dashboards yet. Entire industries are converging on the same AI models, vendors, and data, creating shared vulnerabilities. Think of the 2010 Flash Crash, when markets lost $1 trillion in under 30 minutes because trading algorithms reacted to the same signals. Now imagine that kind of systemic reaction happening across multiple industries at once. Efficiency looks strong, until a single point of failure takes everyone down."
Toledo has more than 25 years of experience in helping banks and financial services firms address a range of risk management, organizational change, project management, and technology initiatives, focusing on optimizing business processes and information systems to achieve more efficient and effective operations. He joined RGP as part of the firm's 2024 acquisition of Reference Point, where he led the risk practice for nine years.
Prior to joining Reference Point in 2017, Toledo held leadership roles at Credit-Suisse, Barclays, Citi, and Morgan Stanley.
