ASSESSMENT, IMPLEMENTATION AND EXPERT SUPPORT
OUR GOVERNANCE, COMPLIANCE AND RISK ADVISORY SERVICES
GOVERNANCE, COMPLIANCE AND RISK ADVISORY SERVICES FOR EVERY SCENARIO
Designed and Delivered by Expert Practitioners
Our services can be divided into four main areas. However, every client is different, and every project is tailored to your needs. Please use this information as a guide to what we can do and get in touch to discuss your specific situation.
REVIEW AND ADVISORY
As your business and the business environment you operate in are constantly changing:
​
-
New or amended legislation may introduce new requirements
-
Technology and transformation projects may affect operations and hence your risk exposure.
-
An incident may cast doubt on the robustness of your frameworks, policies and procedures.
Even without a specific trigger, regular review helps minimise risk and build a strong, stable business. We assist in all the above scenarios, as well as providing independent comprehensive triennial reviews for APRA-regulated entities and other assurance activities.
We assess your current approach to governance, risk and compliance management, including:
​
-
Governance, risk and compliance management systems and frameworks
-
Strategy and business planning
-
Board and Committee performance
-
Investment governance
-
Capital adequacy.
When we conduct assessment and review projects, your report includes:
​
-
Detailed assessment and specific recommendations
-
Executive summary
-
A face-to-face or live-online presentation and discussion of findings.
IMPLEMENTATION
As hands-on practitioners, we’re able to assist with implementation of recommendations from regulators, auditors or other risk advisory activities.
We also support new businesses and businesses entering new markets, who need to establish a full governance, risk and compliance framework fast.
Our implementation projects include workshops so that your team are equipped to take over. We pride ourselves on communication which is practical, pragmatic and easy to understand.
INTERIM RISK MANAGEMENT ROLES
When you are:
​
-
Establishing a new business
-
Entering a new market
-
Recruiting a new Governance, Risk or Compliance Manager or dealing with staff changes or shortages.
You may have a short-term need for compliance and risk advisory expertise. We’re here to help.
FRACTIONAL RISK MANAGEMENT ROLES
If you’re a smaller business, you may not require a full-time Governance, Risk or Compliance Manager, or have the resources to employ one.
We can provide expert support on a part-time basis – for example, this could be one day a week or one day a month, with additional time as required to prepare submissions before Board meetings. Exact terms depend on your needs.
