Enterprise risk management has become an imperative for senior management in all industries as a result of several factors, including the risk of terrorism and other catastrophic events.

Senior managers at market-leading organizations view ERM as a way to profit from risk and opportunity and add value to an organization–a more proactive approach that is taking ERM beyond the defensive objectives of the recent past.
