IRMSA Risk Report – South Africa Risks 2018
The Institute of Risk Management South Africa (IRMSA) publishes an annual risk report, but the 2018 edition specifically focused on "Future" risks, which was a report on longevity risk and opportunity and the need for continuous learning due to the 4th Industrial Revolution. The IRMSA Risk Report series uses risk-based scenarios to explore the future, with the 2018 edition considering risks related to intergenerational living and the need to adapt to a changing job market.

From Guidance to Action: Exploring Practical Enterprise Risk Management
COSO’s “From Guidance to Action: Exploring Practical Enterprise Risk Management” (2026) focuses on making ERM decision‑useful rather than compliance‑driven. It argues that strategy and risk are inseparable and that ERM should influence real choices, not just generate registers, heat maps and RCSAs. The paper introduces ten ERM operating disciplines, including linking strategy and risk, treating value creation as a required outcome, making risk appetite usable, managing risk as a portfolio, prioritising decisions over documentation, measuring value not activity, and embedding ERM into business rhythms. It emphasises lightweight, decision‑led practices: clear trade‑offs, ranges, triggers and ownership at key decision points. Through personas, case examples and a practitioner “translation guide”, it shows how organisations can apply the COSO ERM Framework under real constraints to provide clearer choices, earlier pivots, fewer surprises and stronger board confidence.
