Enterprise Risk Management

In keeping with its overall mission, the COSO Board commissioned and published in 2004 Enterprise Risk Management—Integrated Framework. Over the past decade, that publication has gained broad acceptance by organizations in their efforts to manage risk. However, also through that period, the complexity of risk has changed, new risks have emerged, and both boards and executives have enhanced their awareness and oversight of enterprise risk management while asking for improved risk reporting.

 

The updated 2017 publication (see below) addresses the evolution of enterprise risk management and the need for organizations to improve their approach to managing risk to meet the demands of an evolving business environment.

Integrating with Strategy and Performance: Compendium of Examples​​

COSO issued a supplement with detailed examples for applying principles from the ERM Framework to day-to-day practices. This supplement, titled COSO Enterprise Risk Management - Integrating with Strategy and Performance: Compendium of Examples, was developed from industry practices identified through extensive research conducted when updating the Framework. Each example focuses on specific components covered in the Framework.

​

Written as a collection of case studies, the Compendium offers real-world advice about how to put the ERM Framework to use. Each case describes how a specific entity scaled and adapted the principles, and sets out a relationship between an organization’s mission, vision, and core values; its strategic goals and directions; and approaches used in carrying out its strategy.
