Current uncertainty and challenges call for a dramatic rethink of the way risk is managed. KPMG helps organizations modernize and optimize their approach.
Facing compounding risks, increasing regulation, widespread volatility, and an accelerating pace of change and disruption, leading companies recognize that trust is the ultimate business enabler. Growth, performance, efficiency and innovation are all fueled and facilitated by the trust that customers, employees, partners, investors, regulators and communities have in your enterprise. Having stakeholder trust gives organizations the freedom and flexibility to change speed and direction to seize opportunities as they emerge.
But before businesses can drive value from trust, most need to invest in modernizing how they manage risk and compliance to become more productive and effective. According to the KPMG Future of Risk survey, 90 percent of senior executives say the pace of risk transformation activity has increased over the past year.
At KPMG, we’ve been part of this momentum to elevate how organizations manage their diverse and complex risk environment. We’ve helped plan, develop and embed enhanced capabilities across many client risk operations, from the risk function itself, to compliance and legal, to technology risk and cyber teams, to internal audit. And we know first-hand why nearly all business leaders are putting more time, money and resources toward increasing quality of and confidence in risk-related activities. Like us, they understand that just as trust enables the business, so does dynamic, proactive and technology-enabled risk management enable trust.
