There is overwhelming consensus among financial services executives that the current risk environment has become significantly more complex, dynamic, and difficult to navigate.  And with the challenges the environment presents comes the need for fresh approaches and systemic solutions for managing risk.
 
In a recent IDC Financial Insights study, risk experts from within the financial services and professional services industries across the United States and Europe unanimously agreed that, against the backdrop of the current environment, successful ERM programs require significant executive voice and organizational commitment at all levels.  No longer will it be adequate for subject matter experts to manage risk programs.  Even more, the need for risk management to become a core competency has never been more acute than in the turbulent environment financial services companies face today.
 
The most effective path forward is to make risk management a capability that is built into your organization’s DNA. You must have organizational disciplines—processes, policies, analytics—that help you quickly and efficiently implement new regulations, build compliance into processes, and make data collection and reporting as painless (and effective) as possible.
 
The urgency for new approaches to risk management is undeniable.  And to help our clients navigate the new world of risk management Guidon has partnered with IDC to host a live webinar on June 29th to share insights on what organizations must be doing now.  By attending the webinar, you will gain perspective on:

• Setting an enterprise wide shared vision for risk management
• Creating a culture which sees Enterprise Risk Management as a strategic differentiator
• Ensuring performance - efficiency and effectiveness of risk management efforts
• Leveraging technology to enable superior risk management practices and outcomes

Join me on June 29 at 1pm EST for the live webinar to discuss principles and the roadmap for building mature and effective Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) that leads to competitive advantages.  I will be co-presenting the webinar along with David Potterton - Vice President, and Michael Versace - Research Director from IDC Financial Insights.
