Pandemic Risk Management vs. Realistic Enterprise Risk Management
Due to the current Pandemic Risk occurrence, effective risk management is top of mind. We hear so many acronyms, ERM, BRP, DRP, BCP, etc鈥�
ERM is a risk management framework, which typically involves identifying and assessing events or circumstances relevant to the organization鈥檚 objectives in terms of probability and severity of impact, to determine the adequate response measures.
BRP (business resumption plan) addresses the return to normal business activities after an emergency, but it鈥檚 delimited in time and scope, focusing on preventative measures only.
DRP鈥檚 (disaster recovery plan) objective is to restore critical IT systems; mainly communications, hardware, and IT assets. They aim to minimize business downtime and to have technical operations back to normal as fast as possible.
Then, we have the BCP (business continuity plan) which focus is on ensuring that regular business continues even during the crisis period.
Pandemic Risk has no boundaries in time or scope. Usually, the economic systems are shutdown and governments are in charge till the health authorities and experts agree to reopen them.
The challenges we face during the Pandemic period are many. They are even greater beyond the Pandemic when the whole economic system will need to evolve and adapt to the new reality.
In the meantime, what is the best approach to ensure financial and operational resilience now and in the future?
