Greater confidence in strategy and enhanced organisational resilience
DOWNLOAD THE BROCHURE >>Organisations are operating in an increasingly complex environment with constant threats to their strategic objectives from cyber threats, Brexit, regulatory changes and socioeconomic factors such as the consequences of COVID-19.
An effective and trusted enterprise risk management process is critical to organisational and stakeholder confidence and decision-making, and crucially, one that provides as much as possible the information required to identify emerging risks.
We partner with your first and second lines of defence to embed effective enterprise risk management practices in strategic and operational decision-making. Risk management should add value to organisational processes and activities and not just be a cost.
We assist assurance functions e.g. internal audit teams (third line of defence) and oversight bodies including boards and their committees to discharge their responsibilities effectively.
Whether designing or implementing risk management frameworks or enhancing existing ones, we partner with management to ensure effective and sustainable ERM processes.
Firms managing risks professionally will allocate resources more efficiently, meet regulatory requirements, gain access to specialist skillsets and address independence concerns.
We support management teams in organisations with:
We work with management to design a pragmatic enterprise risk management framework suitable for the organisation that also addresses key stakeholder requirements.
We assess compliance of risk management frameworks with relevant standards and approaches e.g. ISO31000 and COSO 2017 Enterprise Risk Management – Integrated Framework, and develop and implement remediation activities to address any identified gaps.
Working with management, we assess the effectiveness of the organisation’s risk management activities such as alignment to business strategy and risk appetite, internal controls testing and governance and oversight.
We second staff to work with organisations to address any headcount or capability requirements over a short period. This provides effective stop-gap measures whilst developing internal capabilities.
We develop bespoke risk management training programmes for clients, delivered by certified and experienced risk management professionals.
We were very pleased with the way that Xcina Consulting engaged with us from the very start to understand our business and our requirements for the review of our emerging risk management framework that needed to be carried out. Their knowledge, expertise and engagement with the risk team ensured that the revised framework reflected current thinking in emerging risk management, was tailored to our requirements, aligned with the business’ strategic objectives, and provided a robust basis for the effective governance and oversight of emerging risks by our senior management team. XCL’s assistance has helped move the emerging risk management at BUPA Global forward.
