Risk Intelligent governance: A practical guide for boards

In this paper, we aim to give board members a practical, action-oriented guide to enabling and executing Risk Intelligent governance. At the heart of the paper are six sections describing “areas of focus,” each of which represents what we view as a key facet of risk governance. In each section, you’ll find a brief description of the intended goals of that area of focus; a list of suggested actions that can help you pursue those goals; a sampling of questions that can help jump-start discussions among yourselves and with management; and a list of selected tools, proprietary to Deloitte, that we believe can facilitate the execution of your responsibilities.
