* residual risk exposure.
By exploring the various frameworks that organizations operate in today - whether compulsory, compliance driven, voluntary or motivated by best practice - the book offers a practical tool through the SERM model which is at the heart of the book's approach to risk management. This model, together with its global EFR model, have established proven and practical methodologies to achieve sustainable risk management techniques that are accessible to all organizations.
