// Overview

About this programme

Enterprise risk management frequently produces a register that is reviewed periodically and influences little. This programme is about closing the gap between the risk process and the decisions the organisation actually makes.

It covers risk appetite as a decision tool, how risk information should be structured for a board, the behavioural factors that distort risk judgement, and how emerging risks -- including climate and ESG exposures -- enter the framework.

It is aimed at senior decision makers rather than risk practitioners.
