Global Risk and Control Self-Assessment Framework

 

  • Challenge
    • One of our clients, a multinational company with a significant global presence, was struggling with fragmented risk management practices across its regions.
    • With different risk protocols in place, the organization found it difficult to maintain consistent oversight of technology risks.
    • This posed a significant challenge in terms of maintaining regulatory compliance, avoiding operational disruptions, and ensuring the security of global operations.
    • The company needed a scalable, comprehensive risk management solution that could adapt to local regulatory environments while providing centralized control and real-time visibility for senior management.
  • Solution
    • Our advisors designed and implemented a global risk and control self-assessment (RCSA) framework, aimed at standardizing the identification, assessment, and mitigation of technology risks across the entire organization.
    • The framework was carefully tailored to account for the unique regulatory, operational, and cultural needs of various regions while ensuring a uniform approach to risk management.
    • To provide real-time insights, we developed interactive technology risk dashboards that enabled senior leadership to monitor risk exposure in real-time and respond proactively to emerging threats.
    • Our approach also included in-depth training and workshops for regional teams, ensuring the framework’s successful adoption.
  • Results
    • The RCSA framework was successfully deployed throughout the organization, standardizing risk management processes and improving the ability to address both local and global risks.
    • Risk dashboards optimized reporting to senior leadership, giving them real-time insights into the organization’s risk posture, enabling more informed and timely decision-making.
    • This holistic approach led to a 25% reduction in unaddressed risk areas in the first year, ensuring a proactive rather than reactive approach to managing technology risks.
    • The new framework strengthened the organization’s compliance with global and regional regulations, boosting confidence among stakeholders and partners.
