Risk management
In wealth planning and investment management, risk management is a term that is used very frequently.
Risk management is the process of identifying, assessing, and controlling threats to an organization’s capital and earnings.
These threats, or risks, could stem from a wide variety of sources, including financial uncertainty, legal liabilities, strategic management errors, accidents, and natural disasters.
In today’s world, almost every human activity is recorded and stored online and smart devices, web applications, IoT, etc. are generating data faster than ever before in human history.
However, cybersecurity infrastructure has not kept pace with the innovation and data explosion, potentially leaving organizations to cyber threats.
All digitized companies are at risk of the above-mentioned threats as well as the risk of the theft of intellectual property, corporate data, and clients’ personally identifiable information.
Also, the fast-changing political landscape around the world, changes in legal frameworks concerning cybersecurity and online laws as well unforeseen natural disasters are posing a constant threat to the financial stability of organizations.
