Inward
Regulatory drive
How to ensure good / effective risk
management
Search for consistency across all
levels of the business (decision
making)
Two lenses – inward and outward looking
Why is it important to an insurer?
26
Outward
Need for full understanding of risk and
resilience (current approach – on-the-
ground, grading)
What determines how a company will
handle a loss?
Need metrics to determine what ‘good’
looks like
27. BRUSSELS, 20-21 October

FORUM 2015

Ability to gain insight is different
Inward
How to approach these two challenges?

Define ways to embed them
e.g.
• Commitments in personal objectives
• Behaviour of ‘key risk takers’
• Understand through employee surveys
• Clarify relationship between business
decisions and risk tolerance
• Analyse ‘incident’ responses – learning
curves
Identify what attributes are important
e.g
• Decision making
• Leadership
• Staff involvement
• Outcome orientation
• Meritocratic
• Market focus
• Innovation

would the company do?
Has the company demonstrated the
credibility of alternatives?

Is there consistency of purpose across functions / businesses?
How homogeneous is the organisation?
How successful is the business? How dominant is the financial imperative?

How are external relationships managed?
How cooperative is management?
What evidence is there of good management controls?
