Business has been defined as a ‘state of being busy' by some of the earlier management gurus; this is certainly a vague definition of business as business is a lot more than just a state of being busy. The business world has come a long way since this kind of definitions was coined.
Today, businesses are characterized by uncertainty, and volatility; uncertainty presents both risk as well as opportunity for the businesses, and it is the enterprise risk management framework that helps businesses to determine how much uncertainty is acceptable, and how much can be avoided. Never before stakeholders and everybody associated with a business demanded a robust framework for risk management. Here are the key components of an effective risk management framework:
1. Risk Appetite and Strategy Formulation
The strategy makers takes into account their company's risk appetite in evaluating strategic alternatives, setting related objectives, and developing systems for the effective management of related risks.
2. No More Surprises and Risks
Enterprise risk management enables organisations better contend with many of the potential events; this ensures a greater reduction in surprises and associated costs or losses.
3. Risk Response Decisions
It's the enterprise risk management framework that provides the management with the rigor to identify and select among alternative risk responses – risk avoidance, reduction, sharing, and acceptance.
4. Identifying and Managing Multiple Risks
No matter which part of the world you live in and operate your business, your business is bound to face a myriad of risks; with enterprise risk management, the business is more likely to identify and manage multiple and cross-enterprise risks.
5. Deployment of Capital in an Effective Way
Since the business now has access to the risk information, it is in a position to utilise its capital in the most-effective and efficient manner.
6. Opportunities
