7 CPD Hrs

» What is Risk?
» What is Risk Management?
» What is the difference between internal control    and risk management?
» What value is in Risk Management?

Both Internal Control and Risk Management are key components of Enterprise Governance.

Risk Management is the Asymmetrical Twin of Internal Control.
Enterprise Risk Management reveals whether:


1. the enterprise risks are identifiable?
2. the enterprise risks are assessable?
3. the enterprise risks are manageable?
4. the enterprise risks appetite is appropriate?
5. the enterprise risks capacity is adequate?
6. the enterprise risks capability is proficient?
7. the customers are contributing risks to the enterprise?
8. the vendors are contributing risks to the enterprise?
9. the investments are contributing excessive risks to the enterprise?
10. the enterprise risk management is creating value?
