Background: In the current environment, risk has a higher profile and increased responsibility for those who manage it. Business executives and board members face higher expectations for the oversight, management and disclosure of key risks.

Many external factors have driven this heightened focus on risk including recent regulations and standards concerning corporate governance and compliance, and risk management. In addition, large institutional investors and regulators are urging companies to do a better job in disclosing both risks to reliable financial reporting as well as non-financial risks.

In response to these pressures, companies are spending--and will continue to lay out--millions of dollars. In this new environment, executives and board members are anxious for a comprehensive understanding of how risk is being managed in their companies and, in particular, how to manage risk to create the greatest reward for their shareholders.
