Fundamentals of Risk Appetite and Tolerance

2 days|Delivered on request

Fundamentals of Risk Appetite and Tolerance is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through control design and crisis management without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because boards are being asked to evidence oversight, not merely assert it, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with risk reporting to the board, scenario analysis and business continuity planning in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Review risk reporting to the board and say plainly whether it is working, measured against ISO 31000
  • Improve scenario analysis within their own organisation
  • Bring business continuity planning into line with current good practice
  • Put third party risk on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
