How can ERM help organisations achieve their objectives? with Sarah Pearson from Ecclesiastical

Summary: Ecclesiastical offers a range of solutions in this area, all of which endeavour to assess and address risks confidently. In this episode, we discuss the benefits of ERM for clients and brokers.

Quote: “The risk landscape is changing all the time. And having an ERM approach can just help organisations understand the environment that they’re working within, and to navigate through this complexity in a structured way, by understanding the risks, prioritising them, and putting in place mitigation plans, so they can manage them to acceptable levels of risk in line with their risk appetite.”
