Commenting on the formation of the panel, Kristen Gantt, Partner of Madison-Davis and a Managing Director of RBA, said, “Over the past year, we have seen significant renewed interest, specifically among financial services firms and oil, gas, global energy and utility companies, in implementing a more “integrated solution” that combines common risk language with multiple risk-based tools to help them better manage their risks and related business processes, as well as build the basis for benchmarking with peer firms. By adding the risk performance and measurement data, key risk indicators and loss data, provided through RiskBusiness’ taxonomy libraries, our clients have been able to report better information to their Boards through more effective monitoring and tracking of their risks. With the consistent and effective use of these tools to monitor and track this information historically and prospectively, Madison-Davis has significantly extended its offerings to the 200 financial services and highly regulated companies it advises in the U.S. These products are fitting very well into the holistic approach to business consulting that we have built over the last several years.”
Jonathan Davies, co-founder of RBI and a Managing Director of RiskBusiness Americas continues, “By including Dr. Robert Mark and Curtis Holmes, this panel will discuss the need to integrate three core areas of risk management: advisory, data & content and technology tools & products to create a sustainable answer to the questions many companies are currently facing when addressing their risk management. Dr. Mark and his firm, Black Diamond Risk Enterprises, bring tremendous insight into the technical aspects of credit, financial, market and operational risk, while Curtis Holmes and his firm, Texert, along with several other widely known eGRC tools, have worked to integrate risk data and content into their tools and products to create powerful risk management solutions to meet today’s demands for sustainable processes.
