Connected Risk: Internal Audit’s role in driving connection internally and across the risk landscape
February 25, 2025 @ 11:00 am – 12:30 pm EST
Webcast overview
In today’s complex world, the risk function must be interconnected across different dimensions in the organization to flourish. This interconnectivity introduces new complexities that risk leaders across different functions must master. How can the internal audit function, in particular, play a leading role in ensuring that these disparate areas can work together to magnify interconnectivity and build a strong network for risk assurance?
Join us for the next installment of our KPMG CAE Share Forum series, where CAE luminaries from various industry sectors will discuss the interconnectivity of risk and how the internal audit function can drive responsibility across the lines of defense to build stakeholder trust in a three-dimensional risk assurance model.
Specifically, we will discuss:
- Risk Perspective in Audits: How to broaden the discussion on risk and consider its broader impacts during audits.
- Risk Management Framework: Building a framework to manage new risks while addressing existing ones.
- Digital Connection: How to connect data digitally and design a continuous audit monitoring program that integrates with other lines of defense.
- Mindset Shift: Creating a new mindset and helping audit practitioners adopt a connected risk assurance approach.
- Three New Dimensions of Risk Assurance:
- External Connection: External factors affecting the organization and a perspective on how to view all risks as interconnected and compound/affect each other.
- Connected Risk Assurance: Collaborative capabilities to connect all areas of risk within the organization in order to work at the speed of change.
- Mental Side of Risk: Nurturing talent to filter out irrelevant noise and shape the future workforce.
