Outsourcing and Third-Party Risk Management

Firms using third-party relationships are facing increasing scrutiny from regulators and, as a result, are looking to transform their risk management capabilities by taking a more proactive approach to TPRM.
A robust TPRM function is key for managing an organisation’s risk levels. The damage that can be done to firms not managing third parties appropriately can be vast and include loss of customer data and significant reputational damage.
