Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) is a holistic framework that integrates three critical elements for organizational success.
• Governance establishes the foundation for effective decision-making and ensures that organizational activities align with its strategic objectives. It encompasses a robust system of internal controls, clear lines of authority and accountability, and ethical guidelines that guide employee behavior.
• Risk Management involves identifying, assessing, and mitigating potential threats to the organization. This includes a comprehensive evaluation of various risks, such as financial, operational, reputational, legal, and technological risks. By proactively identifying and addressing these risks, organizations can minimize potential losses, protect their assets, and ensure business continuity.
• Compliance ensures adherence to all applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards. This includes complying with data privacy regulations (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), financial reporting standards, environmental regulations, and industry-specific guidelines.
