Risk assessments in compliance encompass the careful evaluation of both external and internal risks, necessitating a carefully planned process for overseeing various risk assessments within a company. This task, while intricate and often challenging, is a crucial aspect of compliance. Fox emphasizes the necessity to precisely define the scope of risk assessments, which could involve assessing external threats, internal controls, or both. He proposes that companies could benefit from the guidance of internal audits, external consultants, or professional service firms.
Similarly, Matt acknowledges its complex and challenging nature. Kelly underscores the importance of a disciplined, coherent approach to managing risk assessments across different parts of an organization, suggesting the possibility of involving assistance from third-party firms or internal audit teams. Both Fox and Kelly's perspectives underscore the importance of strategic planning, effective management, and possible external input in conducting risk assessments in compliance programs.
