Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is a comprehensive approach to identifying, assessing, and managing risks across an entire organization. Unlike traditional risk management, which often focuses on specific areas or departments, ERM takes a holistic view, considering all types of risks that could impact the organization’s objectives and operations.
Holistic Approach: ERM looks at risks from a firm-wide perspective, ensuring that all potential threats are identified and managed in a coordinated manner.
Strategic Integration: It integrates risk management into the organization’s overall strategy, helping to align risk appetite and risk management practices with business goals.
Risk Identification and Assessment: ERM involves systematically identifying risks, assessing their likelihood and potential impact, and prioritizing them based on their significance.
Risk Mitigation: Developing strategies to manage and mitigate identified risks, which can include transferring, avoiding, reducing, or accepting risks.
Continuous Monitoring: ERM requires ongoing monitoring and review of risks and risk management practices to ensure they remain effective and relevant.
ERM is widely used across various industries, including finance, healthcare, energy, and more, to enhance decision-making, improve resource allocation, and increase organizational resilience.
