What do we do:
We have one formula for managing risk across the firm: our Enterprise Risk Management Framework. This consistency enables us to take an end-to-end view in how we identify, measure, build, control and report risks. We are also working to simplify, streamline and automate our manual controls—strengthening our ability to prevent issues, not just to detect them after they happen. When issues do appear, we should strive to understand the root cause. We can then apply those lessons-learned horizontally across the organization to prevent similar issues from arising elsewhere.
