// Overview
About this programme
ESG risk is commonly managed in a register that sits outside the enterprise risk framework, which is why it rarely influences decisions. This masterclass addresses integration directly.
Over two days it covers ESG and climate risk identification across physical, transition, regulatory, operational and reputational categories; assessment against likelihood, impact and time horizon; appetite and tolerance; controls; indicators; and board reporting.
It is a working programme built around applied exercises rather than a lecture series, and participants work with their own risk taxonomy where possible.

// Questions
Frequently asked
Can we run this for our own risk team?
Yes, and it is frequently delivered that way. In-house delivery allows the applied exercises to use your own risk taxonomy and register, which materially improves what participants take away.
Do participants need a risk management background?
Familiarity with enterprise risk management concepts is assumed. Participants from sustainability functions without that background should attend with a risk colleague where possible.
