A spate of high-profile business failures and the emergence of tougher regulations have put organizations under pressure to manage financial risk more effectively. Client organizations have to be aware of the need to manage credit, market, liquidity, and

operational risk, as well as maintaining sufficient levels of economic capital to support the risks facing them.

Risk management is highly complex, with risks often interrelated, and requiring sophisticated tools and techniques. Sarbanes-Oxley, Basel II, Solvency II and the cost of capital require organizations to improve their practices. This ultimately helps management to view risk as a major part of corporate strategy.
