Questions and answers

Questions about Risk Management

Practical answers to common questions about managing this responsibility well.

How should organisations manage risk?

Use risk management software to maintain connected registers for risks, controls, assets and suppliers, so decisions are based on current information rather than separate spreadsheets. Give every material risk a clear owner, supporting context and practical path to treatment.

What should a good process for risk include?

It should cover Risk registers, Control registers, Asset registers, Supplier registers and Configurable risk matrices, with clear ownership, review and evidence rather than disconnected activity.

Who should be accountable for risk?

Ownership should sit with the person who can make decisions, allocate resources and keep the work current. A governance or specialist team may coordinate the process, but material records and actions need named accountable owners.

How often should risk be reviewed?

Use scheduled reviews based on risk and trigger an earlier reassessment after relevant incidents, regulatory change, audit findings or material changes to systems, suppliers or operating conditions.

What evidence should be retained for risk?

Retain the source information, owner, review and approval history, supporting documents and actions needed to explain what was known, what was decided and what happened next. Relevant records include risk register, control register, asset register and supplier register.
