Organisations have a legal and ethical duty to manage risk.
The governance structures to underpin and provide the structure to ensure an effective risk management system is both in place and fit for purpose is essential.
Organisations have a legal and ethical duty to manage risk.
The risk management governance system cannot stand alone, it is integral within an organisation’s wider governance. Ensuring that accountability is required, however, adoption and ownership by all is equally important. Corporate governance involves a set of relationships between a company’s management, its board, its shareholders, and other stakeholders. Corporate governance also provides the structure through which the objectives of the company are set, and the means of attaining those objectives and monitoring performance are determined. Ethics, risk management, compliance and administration are all elements of governance.
Compliance is operating within established legal, industry and organisational parameters.
Ensuring organisations are ‘compliant’ is now embedded within society and both internal and external audit will measure and report levels of compliance. These reviews and inspections to ensure compliance are seldom instigated internally and often because of either an external requirement or after an incident. An organisation’s ability to undertake internal ‘health checks’ through compliance reviews offers both the organisation and its stakeholders not only a view on their current position in the event of an external audit or inspection, but options to improve their areas to prevent or mitigate any potential future incident or crisis.
