Marcus Evans Conferences to Present 'Risk, Control & Compliance 2008' 12-13 May in Kuala Lumpur

Wednesday April 30 1:32 AM

Focused on "Strengthening the value proposition of the internal control process and establishing greater assurance in risk management and compliance", this 2-day conference will bring together professionals and champions in the areas of internal audit, risk management and compliance to discuss the most current issues in implementing internal control and corporate governance.

Leading industry case studies and best practices will be presented at the event to assist in building a value added operation and effective total control & compliance in this ever-changing business environment.

As Asian companies seek to become more global, they will be expected to have more advanced control and governance processes. With greater globalization and cross border transaction, investors and companies are increasingly looking beyond their shores seeking value investment opportunities.

It is said that market capitalization of a company is not just equal to book value which is just an estimate but include other elements such as brand and goodwill, reputation of management and board, quality of governance, sustainability, strategic direction and other non-financial aspects.

Without these it will be increasingly difficult to compete effectively in global capital markets. In order to stay competitive, organizations will have to strengthen their value proposition by having an effective risk, control and compliance system and establishing greater assurance to stakeholders.

Internal audit is increasingly expected to move beyond compliance and financial reporting responsibilities to implement enterprise risk assessments and focus on business and operational risk. Many departments are nevertheless aligning the audit coverage with business and operational initiatives and risk areas that include major programs, contract management, international expansion transactions and major change initiatives. Internal audits and other risk managements should engage in knowledge sharing, specifically information about risks and controls.
