fastTrack webinar - Managing New and Accelerating Risks. The What, the Why and the How.

Emerging & connected risks

An interactive and informative session which will explore new and accelerating risks, investigating key questions around how these risks can be defined and managed whilst exploring practical examples.

This session will cover the following key themes:

• What are ‘new & accelerating risks’? Is this the same as a ‘black swan’ risk?
• What are the limitations of conventional enterprise risk management theory?
• Why do these risks matter and why is interconnectivity important?
• Why is scenario planning and ‘expert’ judgement important?
• How do you prioritise quantitative versus qualitative risk assessment techniques?
• How do you plan risk mitigation versus risk transfer?

By the end of this session, you will be able to:

1. Identify the role and importance of new and accelerating risks
2. Understand how these events can be built into an organisations ERM process
3. Discuss horizon scanning techniques
4. Use appropriate analytical techniques to support better decision making
5. Define different risk mitigation and transfer strategies
