Risk Committee
The Risk Committee is responsible for overseeing the enterprise-wide risk management framework of EATG Global Capital. It ensures that risks are identified, measured, monitored, and controlled within the risk appetite established by the Board of Governors, and that a strong risk culture permeates the organization.
Enterprise Risk Management Framework
Three Lines of Defense
The Committee operates within a three-lines-of-defense model: business units own and manage risk (first line); the Risk Management function provides independent oversight and challenge (second line); and Internal Audit provides independent assurance (third line). The Committee oversees the effectiveness of all three lines.
Risk Taxonomy
The Enterprise maintains a comprehensive risk taxonomy covering six primary risk categories, each with defined sub-categories, metrics, and limits. The Committee reviews the taxonomy annually and approves any changes proposed by management.
Risk Governance Structure
Risk Appetite Statement & Limits
The Board-approved Risk Appetite Statement defines the types and quantum of risk the Enterprise is willing to accept in pursuit of its strategic objectives. The Committee monitors adherence to appetite limits and recommends adjustments as the risk environment evolves.
