Implementing Risk Management in an Organization ( ISO 31000 AND COSO ERM 2017)
ISO 31000 and COSO ERM 2017 are two of the most widely adopted risk management frameworks in the world. They are both comprehensive and systematic, and they can be used by organizations of all sizes and in all industries.
There are a number of similarities between ISO 31000 and COSO ERM 2017. Both frameworks emphasize the importance of:
Leadership and commitment. Risk management must be supported by senior leadership in order to be effective;
Integration with organizational processes. Risk management should be integrated into all aspects of the organization's operations.
An ongoing process. Risk management is not a one-time event; it is an ongoing process that should be continuously reviewed and improved.
However, there are also some differences between the two frameworks. ISO 31000 is more general in scope, while COSO ERM 2017 is more focused on enterprise risk management. ISO 31000 is also more prescriptive, providing more specific guidance on how to implement risk management.

●Get buy-in from senior leadership. This is essential for the success of any risk management initiative;
●Establish a risk management committee. The risk management committee should be responsible for overseeing the risk management process and ensuring that it is effective;
●Identify and assess risks. This involves identifying all of the potential risks that could impact the organization, and assessing their likelihood and impact;

●Monitor and review the risk management process.》 This involves monitoring risks and the effectiveness of risk treatments, and making updates to the risk management process as needed.

Here are some additional tips for implementing risk management:
■Involve stakeholders throughout the process. Different stakeholders have different perspectives on risks, so it is important to involve them in all aspects of the risk management process;
■Use a risk management software tool. A risk management software tool can help organizations to automate and streamline the risk management process;
■Communicate and report on risks. It is important to communicate and report on risks to relevant stakeholders, so that they can make informed decisions.
Risk management is an essential part of any organization's success. By implementing a risk management framework, organizations can identify, assess, treat, and monitor risks, and improve their chances of achieving their objectives.
