Why is it important?

The survey questions encompass the five components of COSO framework: control environment of the businesses, risk assessment, control activities, information and communication, and monitoring.

Perspectives

The study findings indicate that there is need for a more comprehensive awareness about ERM across all categories of businesses in Dubai. While Finance & Banking institutions to a greater extent implemented various risk tools for managing their risks, other businesses were not even aware of the concepts of risk and its management. The study outlines five-step systematic process that helps businesses in Dubai to make well-informed decisions for managing enterprise risk.
