    3. The Current Environment
      • Unprecedented times? Perhaps…
        • How it’s similar:
          • Big declines in the stock market
            • 47% loss between September – November 1929
            • 42% loss between Oct. 2 and Oct. 27, 2008
          • Banking system shaken by bad loans and speculation
        • How it’s different:
          • Just recently moved into a recession
          • Fed moved to reduce to the cost of capital (vs. increasing rates in 1929 and 1930)
          • Aggressive intervention by the world’s central banks
    4. The Current Environment & Risk
      • Risk & Compliance in 2009
        • Troubled Asset Relief Program is expected to come with additional compliance requirements
        • Early congressional sessions are rumored to hold more compliance overhead
        • Correlation between economic strife and increase in fraud
          • Global sales of security software to rise 13 percent in 2009 (source: Gartner Research)
      • Greater need for holistic and cost effective management of governance, risk, and compliance (“GRC”)
    5. What is “Governance, Risk and Compliance”? GRC is a management discipline that enables an organization to clearly define its principles and goals, determine how it will address risks and uncertainties, and grow and protect value. 1 1 Source: OCEG
    6. Key Challenges
      • Compliance managed on a per-regulation basis
      • Inability to view risk across the enterprise
      • Silos of compliance create control gaps and duplication
      • Controls testing is manual and is often done repeatedly
      • Controls information becomes outdated quickly
      • Risk are not often reconciled to Controls

    7. Polling Question
      • What tools do you currently use to manage your governance risks, controls, and reporting?”
        • Spreadsheets
        • “ SOX tool”
        • Business Intelligence software
        • other
    8. Fast Facts
      • S&P announced it is basing part of their corporate ratings on the risk management maturity within the company. A bad risk management review yields a bad corporate rating, which has negative financial impacts (higher borrowing rates, etc).
      • Average Cost of Compliance per employee: According to Competitive Enterprise Institute (www.cei.org)
      • Company size Cost per employee
      • Small (<20) $7.6K
      • Medium (20-500) $5.4K
      • Large (>500) $5.2K
      • Consider that every year, the US Government issues almost 4,000 final rules requiring compliance and there have been 51,000 rules since 1995

    9. Spending Still on Rise
    10. Comments of Interest from SEC
      • December 2, 2008
      • While many firms are considering reductions and cost-cutting measures, we remind you of your firm's legal obligation to maintain an adequate compliance program reasonably designed to achieve compliance with the law … Now more than ever, companies need to take a long-term view on compliance and realize that their fiduciary responsibility requires a constant commitment to investors. That means sustaining their support for compliance during this market turmoil, and beyond it as well.&quot;

    11. How GRC is Defined
      • GRC is an integrated system of people, processes and technology, implemented by the board, management, the workforce, and the extended enterprise which provides assurance that the organization:
        • Understands stakeholder expectations;
        • Sets the right objectives to meet stakeholder expectations;
        • Achieves objectives while addressing risks and protecting value;
        • Operates within legal, contractual, internal, social and ethical boundaries; and
        • Provides relevant, reliable and timely information about the performance of the system to internal and external stakeholders.

    21. Governance Market Insights
      • Companies are still reaching for definition
      • Many are not sure how to measure success
        • Defining acceptable results across business silos is difficult
        • In some cases, this is the first time users are thinking ‘enterprise’
      • Business Ownership is tough without a vision of how technology can enable rather than define
      • True Cost of Ownership often ignores the cost of the Operational Expansion of business; resource support, non-standard platforms, system integration expenses. Therefore, value is hard to realize.
      • Cost Containment has been a good entry point; consolidating complex application landscapes & excess infrastructure
      • Governance is considered a regulatory requirement; a cost, not a solution.
      • Governance began piecemeal, and many are working to consolidate frameworks for a complete dashboard of progress (Risk, Compliance, Project, Operational).
      • The real opportunity is to morph all governance silos into Corporate Governance.
      • Control Rationalization, the art of consolidating controls across multiple regulatory requirements is well underway everywhere.
      • Cost of Compliance is not typically understood, often only articulated in terms of external auditor costs.
