Holistic risk management
A rigorous, coordinated approach to risk management within an organisation. The aim is to identify, prioritise, quantify, mitigate and finance risk from all sources that threaten the achievement of both strategic and financial objectives. The financial and ‘insurance’ risks are integrated in a single programme. Alternative terms enterprise risk management and financial risk management could be construed more narrowly.
