Introduction to the course

The turmoil in the world is continuing – with increasing public unrest fluctuating energy prices, natural disasters of a scale thought unimaginable, volatile stock markets and world geo-political and economic uncertainty.  In this time of global uncertainty how do you steer a course through these difficult waters?

Thankfully many organisations have realised that an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) approach was needed. This has ensured that risks that were previously managed in isolation, can be aggregated and prioritized across the entire business.

However, this training course on Advanced ERM goes one step further. Risks are evaluated based on business materiality. A new understanding of the risks then emerges, and efficient controls can be implemented to tackle what really matters to the business. In short, the focus becomes strategic value creation instead of risk avoidance.

  • Take Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) to a strategic level
  • Learn lessons from Global risk events
  • Determine a clear risk attitude and appetite process
