Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) delivers a framework to identify, evaluate and deal practically with global company risks and opportunities coming from all sources and having a cumulative impact on the organisation and its strategic, financial and operational targets.
ERM identifies and manages serious threats to growth and return while identifying the risks that represent opportunities. ERM consists of a rigorous business approach that assesses risks from all sources. A proactive strategy that looks holistically at the cumulative impact of risks offers a global company integrated strategy to improve the risk-return relationship. ERM consequently avoids significant negative effects on the organization's strategic objectives. It safeguards the realisation of future KPIs, increases the inherent probabilities of achieving KPIs and hedges against KPI volatility.
