1) The document discusses compliance risk as a critical business risk for asset managers. Compliance violations can seriously damage firms through reputational harm, legal penalties, and even cause the demise of firms like Galleon Management.
2) Regulators are pushing asset managers to strengthen enterprise risk management with compliance as a key component. Firms must take a comprehensive approach to identifying all risks, including emerging compliance risks.
3) Leading practices cited include integrating compliance fully into enterprise risk management for a single view of all risks, strong governance, and effective mitigation strategies to prevent serious compliance breaches like insider trading.
Russell Kennedy and Pitcher Partners NFP Seminar - 12 July 2016Russell_Kennedy
Governance requires ongoing development and focus to ensure the company, and those that run it, comply with their obligations. This presentation focuses on corporate governance, risk management, financial performance and accountability and provides some insights into best practice for organisations, including non-financial statutory reporting and internal audit functions.
Todd Mardis argues that everyone needs a power of attorney. Statistics show that 25% of people under age 65 and 79% of all people will experience at least temporary incapacity at some point. A power of attorney appoints a trusted person to manage an individual's financial, medical, and legal affairs if they become incapacitated, to ensure continuity. It is a legal document that assigns an agent authority over a principal's affairs when they are no longer able to do so themselves. A power of attorney can be general or specific, and takes effect either immediately or upon incapacity.
This document discusses the reasons for starting a business and the common risks faced by new businesses. It notes that businesses allow dreams to come true by developing new products and allowing independence. However, businesses also face strategic, compliance, financial, operational, reputational, and other risks. These include risks from regulations, financing issues, internal failures, lawsuits, and natural disasters. The document also defines the key characteristics, or PECs, that successful entrepreneurs possess, which include opportunity seeking, coping with failure, goal orientation, planning, self-confidence, and initiative.
Trends shaping the future of legal risk management by dave cunningham and m...David Cunningham
The legal market is conservative when it comes to risk management, and firms often view proactive risk identification and policy setting as more perilous than helpful. However, recent events related to data breaches, regulatory compliance, and client issues are driving increased focus on risk management from general counsels, insurers, and clients. Key trends include greater partnership between general counsels and IT leaders on risk issues; heightened attention to data confidentiality and security; engagement of professional liability insurers in risk discussions; and growing client sophistication in evaluating law firms' risk handling capabilities. Over time, firms may transition more risk responsibilities to centralized teams and formalize previously implicit risk mitigation.

Key considerations for each entity type are summarized such as liability, taxation and formation process. The document also covers other legal topics such as licenses, insurance requirements, contracts and succession planning.
This document discusses the key aspects and impacts of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which was enacted in response to major corporate and accounting scandals like Enron and Worldcom. It outlines provisions of the act relating to auditor rotation, oversight by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, restrictions on non-audit services, executive accountability, and strengthening of internal controls. The impacts of these reforms are debated, as they aim to restore investor trust while increasing compliance costs for companies.
This document discusses external auditing of non-profit organizations. It provides an overview of the value of audits, accounting standards, audit procedures, and trends in non-profit financial reporting. Audits are important for non-profits to assure grantors and donors that the organization is financially sound and using funds appropriately. The audit process involves assessing risk, testing internal controls, collecting evidence during fieldwork, and issuing an opinion on whether the financial statements fairly represent the non-profit's financial position.
Legal Governance, Risk Management and ComplianceEffacts
The key for corporate legal departments in minimizing risks lies in identifying relevant risks, creating and aligning controls, and monitoring them to ensure compliance.
Identify, measure, and communicate legal and compliance risk in a whole new way. Lawyers, compliance officers, contract managers, and other legal professionals can discover how to measure and manage legal risk more effectively. "6 Steps to Legal Risk Management" provides practical guidance on developing a risk management framework and adapting it to legal and compliance risk. The approach is based on the internal risk management standard: ISO 31000.
The document discusses the importance and benefits of implementing an effective compliance program at a health care organization. It outlines the key elements that should be included in a comprehensive compliance program, such as policies and procedures, oversight, education and training, auditing, reporting, and enforcement. An effective compliance program can help communicate an organization's commitment to ethics, prevent fines and penalties, and protect from liability. It is essential for health care providers to follow guidelines from the Office of Inspector General.
Audit Committees have highly influential roles to support entity achieve its defined goals and objectives.
Through its powers, the audit committee has ability to meet both the internal and external auditor in course of its work and become only " intelligent" team to have insights of control issues affecting an entity.
Unfortunately, the audit committees in number of organization's are not competent enough to execute their roles effectively. EMAC has capacity building programs for audit committee members geared towards capacitating the committees for effective performance
The document discusses the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) passed in 2002 in response to several major corporate accounting scandals. SOX aimed to restore confidence by requiring stricter financial disclosures, independent audits of internal controls, corporate fraud accountability, and protections for whistleblowers. Key aspects of SOX include CEO/CFO certification of financial reports, management assessment of internal controls, auditor oversight, and analysis of potential conflicts of interest for securities analysts.

The document discusses enterprise risk management (ERM) and outlines its importance for public companies. It notes that ERM processes have been mandated by regulators to enhance oversight of financial reporting risk and to improve risk-related disclosures. Proper ERM implementation requires identifying risks, assessing their likelihood and impact, prioritizing them, mitigating major risks, and regularly reporting to management and boards. Frameworks like COSO provide guidance on establishing comprehensive ERM programs.

The survey found that while legal risk is generally seen as owned by the General Counsel, it is not well integrated into organizational risk management. Only 30% of respondents said legal risk was well integrated into operational risk frameworks. This is problematic because legal risk overlaps with other risk areas and managing it effectively requires integration. There was also broad agreement on priorities like compliance but uncertainty around emerging risks. Regulators could provide more guidance to help General Counsel demonstrate control over an broad area like legal risk.
Operation risk management in Private Equity firmsJoseph Kariuki
This document provides an overview of operational risk management strategies for private equity firms. It discusses key operational risks such as cyber risks, compliance and misconduct risks, outsourcing risks, and crisis management. For each risk, the document outlines frameworks and examples of how private equity firms can mitigate exposure. It also includes case studies of operational crises at UBS Bank and Chipotle to demonstrate best practices for crisis response. The overall summary emphasizes that private equity firms should have robust risk management plans in place to prevent issues and protect their reputation and financial performance.
Importance Of The Dignity Of Compliance Risk In Organizations.pdfaNumak & Company
Many companies will lose their focus if management does not indulge in risk compliance because the primary goal of risk compliance is to ensure that no company or organization goes beyond its code of conduct. Thus, businesses must refrain from outbound resources for the existing ones to grow. Nonetheless, companies now initially add the risk management function to their team for cross sections and internal and external compliance, which seems to be the best means to aggregate and wave failure.
Corporate governance is important for companies to protect shareholder interests and manage risks. It involves transparency, accountability, and oversight between key stakeholders like shareholders, management, and boards of directors. Not applying effective governance can lead to financial failures, loss of shareholder rights, and lack of transparency deterring investment. Risks include mismanagement, abuse of power, loss of foreign investment, and withdrawal of capital. Governance aims to standardize responsibilities and achieve fairness, efficiency, and optimal resource use through transparency and accountability.

This document discusses crisis and risk management for companies. It defines a crisis as anything that could significantly impact an organization. Crisis management involves identifying potential crises, planning responses, and resolving crises to minimize damage to a company's reputation, profits, and operations. The crisis life cycle has three stages - the crisis breaks, the crisis intensifies, and rebuilding after the crisis passes. Effective crisis management includes good communication, understanding risks, and being prepared to respond quickly to crises.

The document summarizes the key discussions and best practices for managing cross-border M&A deals that were shared at the 2015 Lex Mundi Summit. General counsel face many challenges in cross-border M&A including navigating complex regulations, cultural and regulatory asymmetries between jurisdictions, and ensuring successful post-merger integration. The Summit participants identified four important disciplines for general counsel: 1) effective relationship management with regulators and internal stakeholders; 2) clear communication and influence across the organization; 3) prudent process and project management; and 4) relentless focus on post-merger implementation. While much legal advice focuses on closing the deal, participants agreed that the hardest work begins after closing in integrating the two companies and ensuring promised
2015 Summit Briefing Excerpt 01.11.2016Eric R. Staal
This report summarizes the key discussions and best practices shared at the 2015 Lex Mundi Summit focused on how general counsel can manage demand, deliver quality, and articulate value in cross-border M&A deals. The Summit highlighted four critical disciplines for general counsel: 1) effective relationship management with regulators and internal stakeholders; 2) strong communication and influence across the organization; 3) careful process and project management; and 4) a relentless focus on post-merger integration from the start of the transaction. Relationship building, clear communication, managing expectations, and ensuring promised synergies are realized were emphasized as essential to navigating the increasing demands and complexities that general counsel face in cross-border M&A.
Ratan Tata and Narayana Murthy effectively managed corporate governance issues at Tata and Infosys. When Cyrus Mistry was removed as Tata's CEO, Ratan Tata stepped in as interim chairman to stabilize the company. Similarly, when Vishal Sikka resigned from Infosys, Narayana Murthy worked to resolve internal politics and restore investor confidence. Both leaders drew on their experience and commitment to transparency, accountability, and security to guide their companies through challenges to their governance structures.
Combining Corporate Governance with Internal LeadershipDwayne Jorgensen
This document discusses corporate governance and internal leadership. It defines corporate governance as monitoring all stakeholders, including employees, to protect interests and ensure compliance. Good governance provides systems and processes to direct the company toward its goals while benefiting stakeholders. Ultimately, senior leaders and boards are responsible for governance, while employees must comply.
The document argues that combining strong corporate governance with internal leadership can revolutionize a company's competitive edge. Internal leadership focuses on strategically engaging and aligning all employees to help the business grow. When employees understand and are motivated to help the business, it can significantly reduce costs from issues like turnover and improve productivity and innovation.
Combining Corporate Governance with Internal Leadershipjobdoctors
Internal Leadership helps competitiveness, profit, and growth. But without a strong Governance program, the company can risk failure and, at a minimum, damage to profits, reputation, and government requirements.
Governance can reduce risk, improve compliance, and provide shareholder and board level continuous monitoring. But without a strong Internal Leadership program, people issues are usually the weak link for governance effectiveness.
That is why we believe Internal Leadership and Corporate Governance are two sides of the same coin for revolutionizing a company’s competitive edge for sustainable growth.
Read this white paper to see how we leverage both solutions to help company growth.

Thoughts on Direction of Ops Risk Management -V4 0Amrut Joshi
The document discusses risk management and operational risk. It provides context on the tumultuous global economic environment of the last decade which brought focus to risk management. However, some question if current risk management practices are adequate given failures still occurred. The document then discusses various studies on risk management and findings that risks are about human decisions. Therefore, influencing business decisions is important to manage risks and avoid failures. It introduces the concept of "behavioural risk management" and capturing the experience of being embedded within business to influence decisions from the first line of defence.

FROM THE JUNE 2012 ISSUE
W
Editors’ Note: Since this issue of HBR went to press, JP Morgan, whose risk management practices are
highlighted in this article, revealed significant trading losses at one of its units. The authors provide
their commentary on this turn of events in their contribution to HBR’s Insight Center on Managing
Risky Behavior.
hen Tony Hayward became CEO of BP, in 2007, he vowed to make safety his top
priority. Among the new rules he instituted were the requirements that all
employees use lids on coffee cups while walking and refrain from texting while
driving. Three years later, on Hayward’s watch, the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded in the Gulf
of Mexico, causing one of the worst man-made disasters in history. A U.S. investigation commission
attributed the disaster to management failures that crippled “the ability of individuals involved to
identify the risks they faced and to properly evaluate, communicate, and address them.” Hayward’s
story reflects a common problem. Despite all the rhetoric and money invested in it, risk
management is too often treated as a compliance issue that can be solved by drawing up lots of rules
and making sure that all employees follow them. Many such rules, of course, are sensible and do
reduce some risks that could severely damage a company. But rules-based risk management will not
diminish either the likelihood or the impact of a disaster such as Deepwater Horizon, just as it did
not prevent the failure of many financial institutions during the 2007–2008 credit crisis.
Identifying and Managing
Preventable Risks
In this article, we present a new categorization of risk that allows executives to tell which risks can
be managed through a rules-based model and which require alternative approaches. We examine
the individual and organizational challenges inherent in generating open, constructive discussions
about managing the risks related to strategic choices and argue that companies need to anchor these
discussions in their strategy formulation and implementation processes. We conclude by looking at
how organizations can identify and prepare for nonpreventable risks that arise externally to their
strategy and operations.
Managing Risk: Rules or Dialogue?
The first step in creating an effective risk-management system is to understand the qualitative
distinctions among the types of risks that organizations face. Our field research shows that risks fall
into one of three categories. Risk events from any category can be fatal to a company’s strategy and
even to its survival.
Category I: Preventable risks.
These are internal risks, arising from within the organization, that are controllable and ought to be
eliminated or avoided. Examples are the risks from employees’ and managers’ unauthorized, illegal,
unethical, incorrect, or inappropriate actions and the risks from br.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

2. Unexpected Crisis Events
a catastrophic facilities explosion, a publicly announced
criminal indictment, the discovery of financial statement
errors, reports of product defects, a corporate governance or
compliance failure, just to name a few — can quickly
destabilize a company. Instantaneous and sustained
response is crucial, especially when media scrutiny is
immediate and intense.
What does not get done, or done well, at the beginning can
have real long-term adverse consequences. In this arena,
there is no time for on-the-job training, for guess work, for
missed priorities. With our clients, we develop and execute
targeted strategies for responding to governmental agencies,
shareholders, the investment community and the media.
3. Unexpected Crisis Events
While every corporate crisis is unique, they share a great deal of common
facts. Corporate governance, officer and director responsibility issues
become sharply focused in almost every case. And inquiries and claims
from Congress, federal and state governmental agencies, and private
parties frequently follow very quickly after the crisis event. It is important to
crisis management response efforts, even though the triggering
circumstance did not arise in those areas. Not knowing what you should
have know become pronounced.
In particular, our extensive experience in the areas of corporate
governance, advice on the proper white collar defense ( as all are not the
same), SEC and other government agency enforcement defense,
legislative proceedings and investigations, securities litigation defense, and
insurance coverage (including director/officer issues and business claims)
are often called upon in dealing with — and in many cases are central to
managing — your corporate crisis.
4. Unexpected Crisis Events
Commonly accepted principles of
Corporate governance include:
Rights and equitable treatment of
shareholders
Interests of other stakeholders
Role and responsibilities of the board
Integrity and ethical behavior
Disclosure and transparency
5. Unexpected Crisis Events
Rights and equitable treatment of shareholders:
Organizations should respect the rights of
shareholders and help shareholders to exercise
those rights. They can help shareholders exercise
their rights by effectively communicating
information that is understandable and accessible
and encouraging shareholders to participate in
general meetings.
6. Unexpected Crisis Events
Interests of other stakeholders:
Organizations should recognize that they
have legal and other obligations to all
legitimate stakeholders.
7. Unexpected Crisis Events
Role and responsibilities of the board:
Your board needs have a range of skills and an
understanding to be able to deal with various
business issues in transition and have the ability
to review and challenge management’s
performance.
It needs to be of sufficient size and have an
appropriate level of commitment to fulfill its
responsibilities and duties.
8. Unexpected Crisis Events
Integrity and ethical behavior:
Ethical and responsible decision making is not only
important for public relations, but it is also a necessary
element in risk management and avoiding lawsuits.
Organizations should develop a code of conduct for their
directors and executives that promotes ethical and
responsible decision making. It is important to understand,
though, that reliance by a company on the integrity and ethics
of individuals is bound to eventual failure. Because of this,
many organizations establish
Compliance and Ethics Programs specifically to minimize the
risk that those in charge of daily operations and or activities
possibly step outside of such ethical and legal boundaries.
9. Unexpected Crisis Events
Disclosure and transparency:
Organizations should clarify and make publicly known the
roles and responsibilities of board and management to
provide shareholders with a level of accountability.
They should also implement procedures to independently
verify and safeguard the integrity of the company's financial
reporting.
Disclosure of such material matters concerning the
organization should be timely to ensure that all investors
have access to clear, factual information.
