Fundamentals of Compliance Risk Assessment (CRA), How Is It Performed. For Compliance, Risk, and Audit Professionals

Hello

Welcome to the 'Introduction to Compliance Risk Assessment' Course.


BRIEF OVERVIEW OF  THE IMPORTANCE OF COMPLIANCE RISK ASSESSMENT

It is one of the big challenges for companies, organizations, institutions, and businesses, to ensure that they comply with applicable laws and regulations. As Laws and Regulations change over time, there is a need for performing regular risks identification, assessments, and mitigation of risks. Performing Compliance Risk Assessment is one of the regulatory requirements and involves a logical and sequential process, which Compliance and Risk Management professionals follow for risk management. Therefore, organizations, institutions, companies, and businesses establish robust Compliance Functions and hire dedicated Compliance Risk Assessment (CRA) teams and professionals.

Compliance and Risk Management professionals perform 'compliance risk assessment', to identify new and emerging Compliance Risks derived from different 'applicable/new' Laws, Rules, Regulations, Standards, etc. to be covered in the overall Compliance Risk Assessment.

Today, Compliance Risk Assessment (CRA) is considered one of the mandatory parts of overall Compliance Management, in any organization, company, institution, or business. Regulated institutions, such as Digital Payment Companies, E-Commerce Companies, Gateways, Banks, Insurance, Investments, Technology Companies, Manufacturing and Service sector companies, and businesses all regularly perform CRAs and report the CRA results to the Board of Directors and Management. Organizations that do not develop, and perform Compliance Risk Assessment (CRA), are prone to the risk of non-compliance, which may lead to fines, and penalties that will lead to financial and reputational losses.
