Corporate Social Responsibility

Ethics

At the heart of the vision for the Centre for Corporate Governance and Risk Management (CCGRM) is the belief that good governance requires an enterprise-wide view of risk management. The knowledge and abilities required to manage risk must be brought to the highest levels of corporate governance: to the boards of directors who provide external governance for the firm; and to senior managers who formulate and execute the board-approved strategic directions for the firm. Identifying and disseminating best practices for corporate governance and risk management is at the core of the Centre’s mandate.
