Risk Maturity Assessment Questionnaire

Introduction

The effectiveness of a company's risk management systems, in identifying and managing their principal business risks, can be assessed against the five levels of risk maturity. These are as follows.

Risk Maturity Key Characteristics
Risk Naive No formal approach developed for risk management
Risk Aware Scattered silo based approach to risk management
Risk Defined Strategy and policies in place and communicated. Risk appetite defined
Risk Managed Enterprise wide approach to risk management developed and communicated
Risk Enabled Risk management and internal control fully embedded in the operations

For a snap shot assessment of your own organisation's risk maturity, complete Grant Thornton's online Risk Maturity Assessment. The self assessment is also a useful tool for discussion around the current and planned risk processes, either internally or facilitated by one of our risk professionals.

It should take no longer than 5-10 minutes to complete.

  • Each question has five answers according to the risk maturity of your organisation
  • The questions should be answered with help from the guidance provided on each page to determine which statement for each question is most relevant
