Rethinking Enterprise Risk Management (Paperback)

This book provides a critical analysis of existing enterprise risk management models and practices and proposes innovative solutions to address the challenges associated with implementing enterprise risk management strategies. Enterprise risk management activities are not high on the priority agenda of the senior management in both public and private sectors. Conceptual ambiguity and methodological gaps in current standards and frameworks make it difficult to effectively implement enterprise risk management. 

Therefore, this book’s approach to enterprise risk management aims to eliminate the unit-based silo approach of traditional risk management, adopting a function-based silo approach. It focuses on the management of fewer and more significant risks associated with high-level objectives, rather than all business processes of the organization, thus increasing the success of enterprise risk management implementation. The book would be a valuable read for business executives, internal and external auditors, business school students and academics.
