Basics and objectives
The German KonTraG (Law on business control and transparency) which came into effect in May 1998, forms the statutory framework to commit companies to implement a professional risk management system (RMS). Another, future requirement for implementing an RMS result from the development of Basel II. Aside from these regulatory requirements, an RMS serves as control instrument for the top management. Instead of only reacting, it allows them to act at an early stage and, by doing so, to ensure business continuity. |
What is a risk management system?
An RMS is a systematic, integrated approach to
- Identify
- Analyze
- Appraise
- Consolidate / aggregate

the essential risks inherent in an organization, continuously and across all areas.
The results gained allow the top management to develop a forward-looking risk strategy for the entire organization which includes all levels and all employees, across all areas. |
