( Includes all course materials, continental breakfast, lunch, morning and afternoon breaks )
About the rk2k Risk Apetite : How to embed Risk Management in Your Organisation
Risk Appetite is a term that is frequently used throughout the risk management community, but it seems that
there is a lack of useful information on its application. Risk Appetite, at the organizational level, is the amount of
risk exposure, or potential adverse impact from an event, that the organization is willing to accept/retain.
The development of a clear risk appetite is an absolute requirement PRIOR to conducting any risk assessment
- yet is almost always neglected. In addition, the rk2k Risk Appetite approach is being used by many large
companies and risk management programs to effectively operationalize risk management concepts – meaning
translate tisk management requirements into language, processes and metrics that executives, business unit
managers and line personnel understand and can apply in their daily job responsibilities. Many organizations
- from the Board level down – are currently struggling with Risk management In general, and specifically
understanding and implementing meaningful processes, metrics and strategies with regards to Risk Appetite.
The following situations inducate a need to more fully identify your organizations risk appetite:
● Your executives and Board of Directors desire further clarification about your organisation’s risk apetite
and risk profile or your strategy to manage risks within your organisation
● No consistent approach to analyse and discuss key risks exists within business units and/or other
security, risks and control functions
● You are experiencing a large number of incidents and need a consistent approach to handling and
escalating as appropriate
● Business units or corporate functions are accepting risks on behalf of the organisation that should be
outside their authority
Course Curriculum:
This workshop will help you define your organization’s risk appetite and determine the acceptable level of risk, by
teaching you should answer the following questions:
● Where do you feel we should allocate our limited time and resources to minimise risk exposure?
● What level of risk exposure requires immediate action?
● What level of risk requires a formal risk response strategy to mitigate the potentially material impact?
● What events have occurred in the past, and at what level were they managed?
rk2k Value Proposition:
rk2k is the risk apetite global thought leader. We include a lot of examples and templates, etc.
