Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)

Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission defines ERM 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.

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM)

SAM defines the Own Risk and Solvency Assessment (ORSA) as:

the entirety of the processes and procedures employed to identify, assess, monitor, manage, and report the short and long term risks an insurance undertaking (and insurance group) faces or may face and to determine the own funds necessary to ensure that insurers (and groups) overall solvency needs are met at all times and are sufficient to achieve its business strategy.

Linking Organisational Culture to ERM

  • Example
  • ERM Principle:

The organisation selects and develops control activities that contribute to the mitigation of risks to the achievement of

  • bjectives to acceptable levels.
  • Two phases
  • 1. Assess the two components of the Double S framework

independently of each other

  • 2. Combine the two to determine the culture

Actuarial Society 2015 Convention 17 – 18 November 2015

Linking Organisational Culture to ERM

  • Phase 1
  • a. Choose the first organisational culture component
  • b. Consider the extent to which each of the key

characteristics of the component is vital to meet the ERM principle and allocate a mark out of five for each characteristic

Conclusion

30

  • Goffee & Jones’ (1998) Double S Cube framework

practically maps organisational culture

  • Derived a process to link to COSO’s ERM principles
  • Resulting in Communal Culture as generally most

appropriate to nurture

  • As reflected in the SA insurance industry
