Introduction to Compliance Risk Assessment

Today, It is a big challenge for companies, organizations, institutions, etc. to ensure that they comply with all applicable laws and regulations. Therefore, they must establish robust Compliance Functions and Compliance Risk Assessment (CRA) mechanisms, that help in the identification of the Compliance Risk Profile of the company or organization.

Regulators all around the world have developed and are developing different Laws, Rules, Regulations, Standards, etc. to provide oversight and direction to entities, organizations, companies, etc.

Today, Compliance Risk Assessment (CRA) is considered a mandatory part of overall Compliance Management, in an organization or institution. Financial Institutions, such as banks regularly perform the CRA and report the CRA results to the Board of Directors and Management.

Organizations that do not develop, and implement the Compliance Risk Assessment (CRA) process, are prone to the risk of non-compliances, which may lead to penalties or reputational losses.
