<div><strong><br /></strong></div>
<div></div>
<div>In the wake of the credit crunch, understanding the acceptable level of risk that your organisation will take to achieve its organisational objectives, your risk appetite, and understanding the amount of risk you are currently taking, your risk exposure, is critical to ensuring your organisation not only survives these tough economic times, but thrives through them.</div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div id="_mcePaste">To effectively manage and monitor the relationship between risk appetite and risk exposure, thus driving strategic execution, organisations need to move beyond traditional, siloed performance and risk management approaches and instead take an integrated and aligned approach.</div>
<div></div>
<div></div>
<div id="_mcePaste"></div>
<div id="_mcePaste">By attending this one-day interactive workshop, attendees will gain insights into the Risk-based performance methodology. This methodology, which builds on the Balanced Scorecard and COSO frameworks, provides a proven approach to managing and monitoring strategic objectives, their risk appetite and risk exposure.&nbsp;</div>

<p>Join Manigent&rsquo;s, Risk Management, Compliance and the Balanced Scorecard webinar, to explore how your organisation can integrate and align these key management processes. During this webinar Manigent will shared insights generated from&nbsp;client engagements over the last few years and ongoing research.

<p><strong>Risk-based performance</strong></p>
<p>Risk-based performance moves organisations beyond traditional silo performance-only or risk-only processes, providing a comprehensive framework which enables organisations to manage and monitor their risk appetite and exposure within the context of their strategy. It enables organisations to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Improve the delivery of their strategy and achieve performance targets</li>
<li>Improve the allocation and utilisation of their capital</li>
<li>Reduce cost through reductions in risk-related losses and simplification of reporting processes</li>
<li>Lower the cost of capital</li>
<li>Respond effectively to regulatory reviews and changes</li>
