Description
In a world of increasing complexity and uncertainty, companies must manage risk more rigoorously than ever. To manage risk more effectively, it is imperative that a company is structured from the board downwards to provide the clearest controls on risks and deliver transparent reporting to stakeholders. Passively complying with rules and regulations is no longer an option. This third edition provides a unique assessment of the potential areas of risk that can face an organisation in the modern business world, drawing on expert advice from both existing and new contributors - including leading consultants, lawyers, regulators and risk management specialists. Coverage includes change and continuity, governance and control, financial risk, and catastrophe and loss.
