ERM looks at an organisation's exposure to quantitative and qualitative risk across all areas, including financial, operational, reporting, compliance, governance, strategic and reputational. It prioritises and manages all exposures in an interrelated risk portfolio considering both causes and effects in internal and external environments, systems, circumstances, and stakeholders.
