Enterprise risk management (ERM) includes the strategies, methods and processes used by business organizations to manage risks.

ERM sets out a framework for risk management. Typically this involves identifying specific events or circumstances relating to the business organization's objectives (in terms of risks and opportunities), assessing them on the basis of their likelihood of occurrence & their magnitude of impact on the firm, determining a response strategy, and monitoring progress of the event, the response and the outcome.

By being proactive in the identification and addressing such risks and opportunities, business organizations protect shareholder value as well as create additional value for their stakeholders, including the owners, employees, customers, regulators, and ultimately society overall.

ERM can may also be seen as a risk-based approach to managing a business, integrating the concepts of internal control, regulatory requirements (such as the Sarbanes–Oxley Act), and strategic planning.

ERM continues to evolve and aims to address the needs of various stakeholders, who want to understand the broad continuum of risks that face complex organizations to make certain they are managed appropriately. Regulators and rating agencies have also increased their scrutiny on the risk management processes of companies and firms. This increased scrutiny today makes up an important component of how the outside world views business organizations.

This practical 2-day hands-on training course providing attendees with an understanding of the requirements needed to design and implement an appropriate Enterprise Risk Management system, i.e. policies, procedures, practices, and accountability required to establish the right levels of Risk Management in compliance with current standards and other requirements for their organizations.

The course provides an opportunity for delegates to benchmark their ERM practices against the COSO – ERM framework, and learn how to implement an effective ERM system.

Organizations are experiencing an increased concern and focus on risk management. The challenge for management of both private and public organizations today is to determine how much uncertainty to accept as it strives towards achieving the organization’s objectives and delivering value to its stakeholders.

The solution to this challenge is the establishment of an Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) system and processes that effectively identify, assess, and manage risk within acceptable levels.

The COSO Enterprise Risk Management – Integrated Framework is designed to provide best practice guidance for management of businesses and other entities to improve the way they are dealing with these challenges.

Systematic and comprehensive risk management is necessary to identify these risks, assess them, and ensure the appropriate controls. We examine how ERM has been implemented at Siemens and the key risk issues that the company faces. Despite this, it was revealed in 2008 that some staff of the company had been involved in a massive bribery scandal in some of the countries it operated in.

    How could this vital aspect of ERM go so wrong? What were the consequences for the company and for the staff involved?
