As the world’s economies continue to grapple with the economic aftereffects of COVID-19, organisations too face unprecedented tumult and uncertainty. This accelerates challenges in risk management which threaten business continuity and enterprise sustainability.
In a time when most organisations are beginning to rebuild and recover, they are also at a higher risk of disruption which includes the growing risk of cyberattacks. This necessitates that they reappraise how they address their risks and customise their risk management strategy in order to mitigate these complexities and sustain their operations.
In response, organisations must equip themselves with a 360-degree approach in risk management while reassessing and reforming their governance system and structures to strengthen risk controls, ethical business practices and organisational sustainability.
The upcoming virtual MIA Risk Management Conference 2021 will provide a platform for discussion on the latest developments and best practices in risk management, and what will be needed to forge an agile and resilient enterprise in navigating this new normal.
Conference delegates can look forward to:
- Identifying and structuring a formula for enterprise resilience.
- Mapping out strategies essential to business operations and continuity.
- Understanding the various categories of risks that threaten organisations in the challenging business environment of the new normal.
