Review Quotes

"

From the foreword:

Having read very many of the significant books on risk management, Liz Taylor's Practical Enterprise Risk Management is undoubtedly the best that I have come across so far. Contemporary, comprehensive and current in its content, the book deals amply with the risks relating to corporate governance, conduct risk and personal ethics as part of risk culture and measurement of 'maturity' of an organization's ERM.
