Practical Risk Appetite and Risk Tolerance
Course Overview
Risk appetite defines the boundaries of risk an organisation accepts when setting targets and making business decisions. It has a crucial role in effective risk management, but is a complex area which involves balancing competing interests. IRM's two-day training explores the amount of risk your organisation is willing to seek or accept to achieve its objectives. We give you the theory behind risk appetite thinking and the hands-on skills and practical knowledge to build an effective risk appetite framework to benefit your own organisation. You will learn precisely how to analyse risk appetite and the tools to implement this key aspect of risk management in your role.
