What is Risk?
DEFINITIONS Institute of Internal Auditors
The possibility of an event occurring that will have an impact on the achievement of objectives. Risk is measured in terms of impact and likelihood.
A situation involving exposure to danger.
Business Dictionary
A probability or threat of damage, injury, liability, loss, or any other negative occurrence that is caused by external or internal vulnerabilities, and that may be avoided through preemptive action.
Merriam-Webster
The possibility that something bad or unpleasant will happen.
Evaluating Risk
LIKELIHOOD
The chance that the risk may actually be realized
IMPACT
The effect that risk being realized would have on your
- bj ectives
Risks Don’t Go Away
- Even if you have:
- Mitigated
- Avoided
- Transferred
- Accepted
- Risks are always present…
Just less likely or somewhere else
- Review them regularly (At least annually)
- What has changed?
- Evaluate your risk appetite…
It can change too!
So What is ERM?
- Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is defined by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) as:
“a process, effected 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.”
So What is ERM?
- Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is defined by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) as:
“a process, effected 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.”
COSO IC vs. COSO ERM
To help assist with the implementation of the ERM process, COSO developed the ERM Integrated Framework (2004), also known as the COSO Cube. This cube is an update to the initial COSO I framework developed in 1992 and then in 2013:
Internal Control-Integrated Framework Enterprise Risk Management – Integrated Framework
What is ERM?
These are the high level goals that are aligned with and support the institution’s mission.
Relate to the ongoing management process and daily activities of the
- rganization.
What is ERM?
Relates to the protection of the organization’s assets and quality of financial reporting.
What is ERM?
Relates to the
- rganization’s adherence
to applicable laws and regulations.
What is ERM?
The Internal Environment relates to the general culture, values and environment in which an organization or entity operates (e.g. – Tone at the top)
What is ERM?
Objective Setting relates to the process management uses to set its strategic goals and objectives. Establishes the
- rganization’s risk
appetite and risk tolerance.
What is ERM?
Event Identification is the process by which an organization identifies events that influence strategy and
- bjectives, or could
affect an
- rganization’s ability
to achieve its
- bjectives.
What is ERM?
Risk Assessment relates to the
- rganization’s process
- f evaluating the
impact and likelihood
- f events, and
prioritizing related risks.
What is ERM?
Risk Response relates to determining how management will respond to the risks an
- rganization faces.
Will they avoid the risk, share the risk, or mitigate the risk through updated practices and policies.
What is ERM?
Control Activities represent policies and procedures that an institution implements to address the risks the
- rganization chooses
to accept.
What is ERM?
Information and Communication relate to those practices that ensure that the right information is communicated at the right time to the right people.
What is ERM?
Monitoring consists of
- ngoing evaluations
to ensure controls are functioning as designed, and taking corrective action to enhance control activities if needed.
What is ERM?
ERM Life Cycle
Each of these components are considered at multiple levels of the organization, rather than within a single function, unit, or department.
ERM Life Cycle
Internal Environment Event Identification Risk Response Control Activities Objective Setting
Information & Communication
Risk Assessment Monitoring
Culture Identify and prioritize risks Evaluate
- ptions
Evaluate Performance Goal setting Confirm next steps Implement
ERM…
- ERM is broader than internal control, expanding and elaborating on
internal control to form a more robust conceptualization focusing more fully on risk
- Provides a common lexicon of risk terminology, and provides
direction and guidance for implementing ERM
- Internal control is encompassed within and an integral part of ERM
- Requires that organizations:
- Examine their complete portfolio of risks – No silos
- Consider how those risks interrelate – Cross cutting
- That management develops an appropriate risk mitigation
approach to address these risks in a manner that is consistent with the organization’s strategy and risk appetite
So What Does This Mean?
- Each ERM is unique to each organization
- Not a “silver bullet” to prevent risks from
- ccurring
- Risk Appetite = Ability to Mitigate Risk
- Not “One Size Fits All”
- ERM is not a methodology or checklist of items
that need to be completed that guarantee results or elimination of risks
- ERM is not the only way organizations can take
a more proactive approach to managing risk…
Other Frameworks
- CoCo – “Criteria of Control”
- Risk management tool developed by the Canadian Institute of
Chartered Accountants to assist managers and internal auditors in designing, assessing, and reporting on control systems of an
- rganization.
- Cadbury Report
- Published in 1992 and sets recommendations that focus
primarily on practices related to transparency and accountability at the top levels of an organization rather than throughout the
- rganization as a whole.
Other Frameworks
- Australian and New Zealand Standard on Risk Management (AS/NZS 4360:2004,
- r ASNZS)
- Considered by some to be the gold standard for all other risk management
standards.
- ASNZS is widely used internationally; desirable for its simplicity
- ISO 31000:2009 – Developed by the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) and based off the AS/NZS, ISO 31000 provides principles and generic guidelines on risk management
- Defined as “a process that provides confidence that planned objectives will
be achieved within an acceptable degree of residual risk.”
So What’s the Value
- The biggest value in each of
these frameworks lay in their promotion of continuous improvement, diligent management practices and ongoing monitoring.
Why is it relevant?
- Organizations are increasingly looking to expand
their risk management functions to help reduce potential future losses through:
- Improved monitoring and reporting
- Better risk identification and response
- More risk-based decision making

- We save people’s lives.
- We make people’s lives better through

ERM and CDOT
- What is the definition of “audit”?
- The word audit is derived from the
Latin word “audire”
- Which means…
to listen or hear
- This is the ONLY universal principle
- f ERM no matter where you go or
what you do!
ERM according to Chris
1. Listen and observe 2. Build trust and cooperation 3. Be realistic 4. Don’t operate in a bubble 5. Learn and ask questions 6. Understand the environment 7. Identify and prioritize 8. Implement 9. Assess and evaluate successes
- 10. Rinse and repeat as necessary
