Your stakeholders are increasingly inquiring more often about what your company is doing in terms of ESG (Environmental Social Governance), Ethics, Cybersecurity and Assurance. It is imperative to have a mature GRC function and to understand what a mature GRC function looks like for your industry in terms of: methodologies, ways of working, level of integration between your 2nd line of defense (compliance and risk) and 3rd.

TLG in cooperation with SAI360, Peter Konings, and The Hague University of Applied Research will share their findings from a recent global GRC Benchmark Survey completed by over 100 GRC executives from multinational companies. In addition, we have assembled a panel from Maersk, Zurich, Origin Enterprises and other companies to discuss their own GRC best practices.

Our corporate panel will discuss:

  • What is your total cost of compliance?

  • Structure of your compliance, risk or audit function

  • Automation and tools used for data mining, process mining, AI, anti-corruption processes, cybersecurity and audits

  • KPIs used for compliance, audit and legal roles

  • Enterprise Risk Management: budget, risk appetite, reporting mechanisms

  • ESG Governance: standards, automation, investment in ESG

  • Ethics and Culture: codes of conduct, training options
