Today, more than ever before, industry regulations are driving strategy. This is especially true of the Banking & Finance, Utilities, ICT and Mining industries, where legislation impacts every decision - from reporting to governance, right down to the day-to-day management of the business.
Not surprisingly, risk management and compliance is a major area of uncertainty for most organisations. Their very existence depends upon it, but knowing how to embrace risk and compliance programs is - for many - an insurmountable challenge. How does a corporation ensure that today's needs are addressed, while also allowing for the impact of further regulation, future technological advances and unpredictable environmental influences?
Having an holistic understanding of the business, industry, domain, ICT, people and processes of a large corporation is essential. And without this holistic perspective, it's impossible to divine the true implications of a risk and compliance program.
