Set by the board, a risk appetite statement underpins sound risk governance systems, including risk culture and strategic decision-making. It enables an organisation to understand the level of risk that its willing and able to accept.

This webinar provides a practical guide to the board’s role in understanding and creating the purpose of their risk appetite statement. It will also dive into how directors can monitor the internal alignment within the risk management framework of the organisation.

The webinar will cover key points:

The webinar will provide actionable takeaways to assist directors and executives in fulfilling their risk control and mitigation reporting duties, and in making strategic decisions within the risk appetite parameters set by the board and organisation.
