About Walid

Senior consultant in IT risk management, audit, and regulatory compliance, with over 15 years of experience in banking and insurance environments.

I support organizations in their transformation and compliance challenges, particularly around **DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act)**, IT internal control, and IT risk management.

I concretely intervene on:
  • Structuring and strengthening IT internal control systems
  • IT risk mapping and regulatory compliance
  • IT audit management (statutory auditors, general inspection, internal audits)
  • Third-party risk management (TPRM / outsourcing)
  • Incident governance and operational resilience measures
I have supported major groups (banks, insurance, CAC 40 companies) on high-stakes regulatory missions, in liaison with IT, risk, and compliance departments.

My approach: pragmatic, results-oriented, and adapted to the operational constraints of teams.

Available quickly for IT audit, IT risk, or DORA program assignments.
