Effective assessment and mitigation of risk, whether insurable or not, frequently depends on good data, well used. Technological advances mean that the amount of data potentially available has recently exploded and the search is on for the tools and techniques to use it effectively.

This webinar looks at how new technology is changing the way that insurers, and others concerned with the management of risk, collect and utilise data. It discusses how information on front line, operational and engineering risks fit into the broader, anti-silo, approach of enterprise risk management. The webinar provides insight into how organisations today view and manage risk at a strategic, project and operational level, how digital technology is affecting risk management, and provides a broader business context to the work of SaRS and IRM members.

The webinar is presented by:
