Risk Advisory Services (RAS)

Factors Impacting the Need for RAS Services
Did catastrophic failures in risk management and corporate governance cause the current economic downturn or did the downturn simply reveal those failures? Either way, senior management, corporate directors, and regulators are calling for better risk management and more transparent governance. PMB Helin Donovan has the people, skills and experience to help integrate information technology, risk management and governance practices with your organization’s broader initiatives.
