Risk Management

Digitalisation, globalisation, regulation and data protection: These words are all associated with opportunities, challenges and risks for organisations. Beyond assessing compliance with IIA standards or the International Professional Practices Framework (IPPF), effective risk management enables your company to detect risks at an early stage and empowers you to seize opportunities as they arise. Choose BDO to support your individual projects or your organisation overall.

 

Risk management framework

A risk management framework tailored to your company or project can make an important difference in preventing and managing risks. We can help you develop and implement or improve a framework that considers all relevant aspects for your organisation and we work with you to identify, assess and define appropriate risk mitigation and response procedures, incident response strategies and early warning mechanisms.

Business continuity management (BCM)

Risks can never be fully eliminated. Developing a business continuity plan is a vital step in avoiding major damage or serious loss.

We can support you in establishing or assessing your strategies, plans and actions to safeguard business continuity. We can help you working through future scenarios and alternative business processes to prevent interruption to your organisation's operations.

• Providing independent assurance on your partners’ internal control systems
