Outsourcing Compliance

Jul, 22, 2015

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOKJ1fBRaXE Outsourcing is very common and often viewed as the most appropriate way to get a job done.

Risk escalation

May, 20, 2015

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mezw84XNCyE Hello and welcome to this session. What I’m going to talk about today is risk escalation. Now, this seems to be something that is really, really misunderstood amongst the risk management fraternity, but certainly within organisations.
