      Contemporary business environment is rapidly changing, making the enterprise risk management a constant and complex challenge. Having the effective risk management process in place is particularly crucial for identifying and managing emerging or evolving risks that may adversely affect strategies and goals. We support our clients in developing the risk management policies, risk maps and registers as well as risk indicators, allowing to effectively analyze threats and opportunities for the organization.



      What is Risk Management and why is it so important?

      The purpose of the enterprise risk management process is to establish the risk management culture and  awareness of the importance of the risk management in influence on achievement of tactical and strategic goals. Risk management is the key component of the corporate governance - processes and structures that should be implemented by the management to maintain and ensure appropriate flow of information, decision making and monitoring activities, and effectively support execution of the strategy.



      Risk Management challenges

      One of the main challenges in the risk management process is identifying risks in relation to organization's objectives and its key success factors. Many entities, companies and public institutions, create specialized units responsible for risk management. In other, the analysis of risks to which the organization is exposed to, is decentralized or delegated to support units that do not have such specialist knowledge in the risk management area.
