Controls assurance. Are your controls designed and operating effectively?

On-demand webinar

“The greatest potential for control tends to exist at the point where action takes place” (Louis Allen).

Whether it’s crossing a road or managing the risks of a large corporation, controls should be positioned as the enablers to meet objectives, not hindrances.

Join us for an intimate look at controls, how they modify risk and how we can gain assurance as to their effectiveness.
