Understanding and managing risks are fundamental to the success of every business. Risks are posed by the people, processes and technologies that comprise a company. An objective and independent assessment of a company’s controls and resultant vulnerabilities is nothing less than a critical investment in the integrity and future of a business. Developing programs to mitigate the inherent risks of an organization will help insure regulatory compliance, protect assets and reputations and enhance returns to stakeholders.

Identifying risks and assessing a company’s exposures can be a daunting task for any organization. Risks exist in all areas of a business—from the mail room to the board room. Companies often try to make their own assessment of their risks. This approach lacks the requisite independence and objectivity needed for a true assessment, and companies often later learn that the resources who created the risks were the ones tasked with assessing the risks.
