Course Overview

Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) provides a holistic approach to managing risks across business units, ensuring organizations anticipate challenges, safeguard resources, and capitalize on opportunities. Unlike siloed risk management, ERM integrates governance, strategy, operations, and compliance into a unified framework for resilience.

This course covers ERM frameworks, risk identification, qualitative and quantitative analysis, risk appetite and tolerance, crisis preparedness, governance oversight, and international best practices. Participants will gain practical skills to design and execute ERM strategies that align with corporate objectives and regulatory requirements.
