Enterprise Risk Management and Firm Performance Validated Through 2
— Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is an essential technique, used to manage a myriad of risks in a holistic manner. This paper presents an ERM implementation framework which is operationalized by fourteen elements. It highlights the impact of ERM towards the firm's performance measured through Economic Value Added (EVA) factors. The research design incorporates descriptive and cross-sectional analysis. Data was collected from 120 public listed companies in Bursa Malaysia through questionnaires survey. Results of the empirical analysis show that ERM implementation has significant positive impact on firm's performance. The results support the hypothesis that the firms which implements ERM will enhance their performance as validated through the perceived measurement of EVA factors. This study offers a perspective of measuring ERM implementation impact through EVA factors as compared to the accounting measures.
Enterprise Risk Management and Firm Performance
Increased volatility in the business world has exposed the inadequacy of traditional but fragmented approaches to risk management. This has led to an integrated approach to measuring and managing risks known as enterprise risk management (ERM). While past studies of ERM disclosures have examined it within the context of corporate governance and internal control, its relationship to firm performance has received little attention. While business performance changed radically between 2008 and 2009 during the financial crisis and economic recession, only minor increases in risk exposure, risk consequence or risk management strategies were found from 2007 to 2008. ERM information did not predict or have any appreciable effect on business performance.
Missed opportunities in performance and enterprise risk management
Journal of Corporate Accounting & Finance, 2009
Is your organization missing opportunities to incorporate enterprise risk management (ERM) into its strategic planning and strategy management processes? This article addresses how an organization can ensure that its strategic planning process considers risk and risk management. How well, in other words, do your ongoing performance management reports include ERM program concerns? And are your ERM and strategy management or balanced scorecard (BSC) processes operated together or separately? © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Enterprise Risk Management Measurement: Insights from an Interdisciplinary Literature Review
Multiple Perspectives in Risk and Risk Management
Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) represents a paradigm envisioned to provide an organization both resilience and opportunity in the face of uncertainty. The debate around ERM's value contribution to the organization has led to key ERM research questions arising, highlighting the need for further investigation of empirical measurement of ERM and its implementation. Calls from several scholars specifically request extending the academic body of knowledge on ERM measurement. Motivated by the above calls, this study presents the findings of a systematic review of the ERM literature. The review examines the academic discipline of journals existing ERM studies are published in, these journals' H-indices, the location of the studies, and the methodology of how ERM is measured in the studies. The review establishes that the ERM literature cuts across several academic research disciplines such as accounting, finance and strategy. Moreover, the extant literature underscores that it is very difficult to quantify and measure ERM in practice within organizations. Consequential to this, most empirical studies of ERM have emphasized either a qualitative approach focusing in depth on specific organizations, or a quantitative approach relying on accessible, basic secondary data available in company reports. A gap in knowledge is presented around extending ERM measurement, in particular in terms of methodologies based on primary data collection and analysis. This paper concludes that further development of empirical measurement scales based on primary data, whereby direct, first-hand input from members of organizations implementing ERM is collected, will augment the ERM body of knowledge. Such scales will allow for important aspects of ERM as it is implemented in the organization to be empirically measured.
Does Enterprise risk management enhance operating performance?
Advances in Accounting, 2017
The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) framework (COSO-ERM) indicates that the development of an enterprise-wide risk assessment and management process is designed to "provide reasonable assurance regarding the achievement of entity objectives." We examine this issue and hypothesize that firms with mature ERM processes should achieve greater operational performance than those with less mature risk management processes. This study relies on internal audit function management survey responses matched with archival firm level data to gain a better understanding of the expected operating performance impact of the multi-stage ERM implementation process. After controlling for board governance and other known effects, we find that firms with higher levels of ERM process maturity are characterized by higher operating performance than their industry peers utilizing performance metrics closely related to the earnings process. Our study provides support for the linkage of enhanced operating performance associated with the maturity of ERM processes and suggests other potential areas of ERM research.
Integrating Enterprise Risk Management with Strategic Planning for Improved Firm Performance
European Journal of Business and Management Research
The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether the integration of ERM at the strategic planning stage improves a firm's financial performance measured in terms of return on assets. Many researches in the literature have focused on the determinants of ERM implementation and its effects on firm performance. In most of these studies, the ERM concept has been measured dichotomously. A comprehensive measure of ERM is used in this study from primary data gathered based on an established ERM framework. The results show that ERM implementation is not significantly related to firm performance. However, empirical evidence is provided that if ERM is integrated with strategic planning, firm performance shall significantly improve. The comprehensive ERM measure provided contributes to the literature as it enables risk practitioners to assess the level of risk management in their organizations. ERM researchers can use this measure to do away with the dichotomous ERM measure. Furthermore,...
Enterprise risk management and firm performance: A contingency perspective
Journal of Accounting and Public Policy, 2009
In recent years, a paradigm shift has occurred regarding the way organizations view risk management. Instead of looking at risk management from a silo-based perspective, the trend is to take a holistic view of risk management. This holistic approach toward managing an organization's risk is commonly referred to as enterprise risk management (ERM). Indeed, there is growing support for the general argument that organizations will improve their performance by employing the ERM concept. The basic argument presented in this paper is that the relation between ERM and firm performance is contingent upon the appropriate match between ERM and the following five factors affecting a firm: environmental uncertainty, industry competition, firm size, firm complexity, and board of directors' monitoring. Based on a sample of 112 US firms that disclose the implementation of their ERM activities within their 10Ks and 10Qs filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, empirical evidence confirms the above basic argument. The implication of these findings is that firms should consider the implementation of an ERM system in conjunction with contextual variables surrounding the firm.
