Functions Of Risk Management Department
The risk management team or department should facilitate improved enterprise decision making to boost business performance. Risk management principles practice and process should increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the business. The business leaders will be able to take more risk consciously as opposed to unconscious acceptance of higher risk levels.
What is the right level of risk will depend on the risk appetite and risk tolerance of the business leaders. There maybe nothing wrong with a high corporate risk exposure to achieve business goals and objectives as long as you know how exposed the business is and put in suitable risk control measures.

An effective risk management system will require a clear role for the risk management function in the business.
