What is risk and risk management?

What is risk

“Effect of uncertainty on objectives”

Effect: Positive

Negative

Deviation from the expected

Objectives: Definition works best if the organisation has clear objectives

These need to be tested as part of risk management process

What is the best definition of risk?

Organisation Definition of risk

ISO Guide 73

ISO 31000

Effect of uncertainty on objectives. Note that an effect

may be positive, negative, or a deviation from the expected.

Also, risk is often described by an event, a change in

circumstances or a consequence

Institute of Risk

Management

(IRM)

Risk is the combination of the probability of an event and its

consequence. Consequences can range from positive to

negative

COSO – ERM

Integrated

Framework

The possibility that an event will occur and adversely affect the

achievements of objectives

From old

AS/NZ 4360:2004

The chance of something happening that will have an impact on

objectives

Definitions of risk management

Organisation Definition of risk management

ISO Guide 73

ISO 31000

Coordinated activities to direct and control an organisation

with regard to risk

Institute of Risk

Management (IRM)

Process which aims to help organisations understand,

evaluate and take action on all their risks with a view to

increasing the probability of success and reducing the

likelihood of failure

COSO – ERM

Integrated

Framework

A process affected by an entity’s board of directors,

management and other personnel, applied in strategy setting

and across the enterprise, designed to identify potential

events that may affect the entity, and manage risk to be

within its risk appetite, to provide reasonable assurance

regarding the achievement of entity objectives.

approach to risk

management?

Consider the list of disasters identified.

Was this a failure of:

- prediction?

- prioritisation?

- mobilising resources?

Communication and consultation

Communication

– a continual and iterative process that an organisation

conducts to provide, share or obtain information and to

engage in dialogue with stakeholders

Consultation

– a two-way process of informed communication between an

organisation and its stakeholders on an issue prior to

making a decision or determining a direction on that issue

Stakeholders

– a person or organisation that can affect, be affected or

perceive themselves to be affected by a decision or activity

Communication and consultation

• help to establish the context appropriately

• stakeholders interests understood & considered

• risks adequately identified

• bring expertise together for risk analysis

• ensure different views are considered

• secure support for risk treatment plans

• enhance appropriate change management

• develop appropriate communication plans

Purpose of communication and consultation

Effective communication about risk

• comprehensive and frequent reporting of risk

management performance is an essential element of

organisational governance

• internal and external stakeholders

• communication is upwards, downwards and across the

organisation

• communicate on significant risks and risk management

performance

• how we communicate matters as much as what we

communicate

• link to effective relationship building and behaviours

Perspectives to Identify KPI’s

Some risk terminology

• A risk is the effect of uncertainty on objectives

• A hazard is the source of potential harm (a hazard can be a risk source)

• A risk source has the potential, alone or in combination, to give rise to risk. We might also term this cause

• An event is the occurrence or change of a particular set of circumstances

• A consequence is the outcome of an event affecting objectives

• the amount of risk an organisation is willing to seek or accept in pursuit of its long-term objectives

Risk appetite

• the boundaries of risk taking outside of which the organisation is not prepared to venture in pursuit of its long-term objectives

Risk tolerance

• the full range of risks which could impact, either positively or negatively, on the ability of the organisation to achieve its long-term objectives

Risk universe

Key terms

Risk appetite can be complex

– simplification can be attractive but can lead to

meaningless approaches

Needs to be measurable

– otherwise statements empty and useless

– key performance drivers need to be understood

– key risk and key control indicators need to be developed

Not a single fixed concept

– there may be a range of appetites within an organisation

– appetites may vary overtime influenced by changes in the

risk and control environment or the benefits to be gained

Key principles

Developed in the context of the organisation’s risk management capability

– an understanding of risk appetite unlikely to emerge before a level of risk management maturity reached

Must take into account strategic, tactical and operational levels

– risk appetite needs to be addressed at all levels

Must be integrated into the control culture – linked to both the propensity to take risk (often greater

at strategic level) and also the propensity to exercise control (more prevalent at operational level)

Key principles

• prioritise risks in terms of their significance

• provide some consistency about the perception of significance

• decide how to allocate scarce resources

• decide whether to proceed with a new strategy, project or investment

• inform decisions on risk appetite

Why is risk analysis and evaluation

important?

Benchmark to determine significance

₋ Financial – sums involved

₋ Disruption – length of time

₋ Reputational - profile

Hungry?

Not enough risk

Over Fed?

Risk treatment

A process to modify risk (ISO 31000)

Risk treatment (or response) involves:

– the selection of one or more options for modifying

risks

– implementing those options

– the treatments then provide controls or modify current

controls

Controls include any process, policy, device, practice or other

actions which modify the risk

What is risk treatment?

Risk treatment is a cyclical process

Deciding

whether the

residual risk

level is

tolerable

Assessing

the

effectiveness

of that

treatment

Examine

cost and

benefit of the

treatment

If not

tolerable,

generating a

new risk

treatment

The purpose of risk treatment plans is to document how the chosen treatment options will be implemented.

Information should include:– a description of what the planned action is

– expected benefit(s) to be gained

– performance measurements and constraints

– accountabilities (risk owners and control owners)

– reporting and monitoring requirements

– resourcing requirements

– timing and scheduling

Think back to previous case histories discussed -• why did the established controls systems fail?• what do the case studies tell us about the risk culture of the organisation? • what are the critical factors for embedding risk management ?

Group Discussion

Embedding risk management

Embedding risk management

Visible commitment from the top

– articulated and endorsed through a policy and framework for managing risk

– lead through actions – risk-based decision making, aligned with strategic objectives

– clear understanding of the risks to the business. Set risk tolerance and risk appetite

– active support and adequate resource for risk management initiatives

– assurance on status of key risks (KRI’s) and controls (KCI’s) sought and followed through

An organisational framework to ensure

– clearly defined responsibility and accountability

– training for all relevant stakeholder groups to raise

awareness of benefits, establish responsibilities and

improve skills in management of risk

– ownership clearly established for risks and key

controls

– clearly defined lines for reporting and communication

Embedding risk management

Integration into management processes

– ensure the benefits for business and resource planning are clearly established through integration with the ‘normal’ business planning processes

– integrate into performance management system and establish KPI’s

– integrate with reporting and review systems, including internal audit

– include development of risk management skills within leadership and management development programmes

Embedding risk management

• clear and concise outline of the organisation’s

requirements

• providing uniformity and consistency in the risk

management process across all operations

• provides a high level overview and description of

the risk management process

Purpose of a risk management policy

Session 3

• developed and owned at board level

• developed with consideration as to how

compliance with the policy will be monitored

• reviewed regularly

– annual review

The policy should be…

Session 3

• who are your key

stakeholders?

• what do you hope the

ERM process will

deliver to you and to

your key stakeholders?

Group exercise

What will ERM deliver?

5• a framework for control

4• better informed decision making

3 • reduced volatility

2 • improved stakeholder relationships

1• protection of company assets

So what will risk management do for me?

‘The elevator pitch’

The greatest risk is to take no risk at all, because if

we don’t take risks there’s no advancement,

there’s no progress and there’s no profitability.
