Why attend

Most organisations can see their risks. Fewer can govern them.

Risk registers, spreadsheets and point tools give you visibility. Regulators, boards and auditors now expect more: clear ownership, tested controls and evidence on demand. This session shows how to get there with IBM OpenPages, using examples from financial services and government.
