What is Enterprise Risk?

Our Internal Audit team works collaboratively with audit committees, leadership teams and management to support them in reviewing key financial, operational, strategy and compliance processes, to target key risk areas across an organisation. We help identify and assess areas of significant business risk, develop remediation actions and mitigate controls to reduce the risk faced by the organisation, and support effective ongoing management of risks. We also help clients to identify key control weaknesses and assist them in developing agile control frameworks which align to better practice and are achievable for each organisation.


Our Risk Transformation team works closely with boards, leadership teams, and large-scale projects and transformations on a variety of risk-related deliverables, such as aligning risk to corporate strategy, designing and implementing risk frameworks, periodically assessing risks for longer-term projects, and aligning risk processes to global better-practice standards.
