What Is Compliance Risk
What Is Compliance Risk
Organizations of all types and sizes are exposed to compliance risk, whether they are
public or private entities, for-profit or nonprofit, state or federal. An organization's
failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations can affect its revenue, which
can lead to loss of reputation, business opportunities and valuation.
GRC is designed to help organizations identify and evaluate risks to their business and
reputation. The three fields are similar to incident management, operational risk
assessment and internal auditing.
