3. How was it carried out?
I have explained my involvement in the Risk assessment stage through the following heads.
Risk identification
- I had conducted three rounds of discussions with respective process/ project leads, business unit heads, representatives of other departments to identify the threats and risks to the organisation which may disrupt our operation or business.
- I have classified those risks into different types and identified the likelihood of occurrences and impact on people and operations.
Report Preparation
- I had documented the results of the risk assessment in a report. Taken inputs from IT, Admin and other teams and evaluated the existing control measures and additional requirement
Management approval
- I had completed the prioritisation of risks with the team and documented and submitted the list of threats and risks to management. As a result, it had been accepted by the management, and an acceptable level of risks had been decided.
- With the help of Account BU, IT and other BU project lead, I prepared the budgetary and took approval from management (head of division/director).
Improvement and risk re-assessment

- I am a member of the BCP Committee and Management Review Committee and am actively involved in management review meetings regarding risk-related activity and mitigation plans.
- I am actively involved in internal audits, clients audit and external audits regarding our risk assessment methodology and results.
