ERM Initiative Top Risks Report Covered in WSJ Newsletter

The Enterprise Risk Management’s 2019 Top Risks Report was featured in The Wall Street Journal’s April 3, 2019 Morning Risk Report e-newsletter.

According to a survey of financial executives, enterprise risk management has become more widely accepted over the past decade, meaning that leaders are becoming more open to a systematic approach to managing risks. Thirty-one percent of the companies surveyed stated that they have a formal enterprise risk management process, a major leap from the mere nine percent from a survey in 2009. “A common concern among executives is that an enterprise risk management program will increase costs without yielding much benefit,” said Mark Beasley, professor of enterprise risk management and accounting at NC State’s Poole College of Management.
