About the Division:

The value that Risk Advisory creates for organisations is synonymous with operational excellence.

In an environment of escalating IT security threats, technology outages, data integrity and quality issues, corporate governance concerns and privacy mandates, organisations need to be sure of the integrity, confidentiality and availability of their information and underlying systems. This requires information systems that are properly deployed, monitored and controlled.

We assist organisations in building value, by taking a Risk-Intelligent approach to managing financial, technology and business risks.

We leverage our global network and in-depth industry knowledge, so as to assist organisations in mitigating the risks associated with internal systems, business processes, projects, applications, data and third-party reliance.
