OCIC Risk Management Webinar Series Part 1
Event Details
Managing risk is part of the board stewardship responsibility and management’s duty of care. The board and management need to develop an appropriate risk management environment for the organization to ensure risk exposures are within the risk tolerance set by the board. Risk management is the identification, evaluation and prioritizing of risk followed by the implementation of controls to manage and mitigate the impact of risk events.
