Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

Non-financial risks can inflict a devastating financial impact on a company.  ASIC and other key regulators are seeking to hold corporates to account for failing to exercise active stewardship of non-financial risk. Australian directors and senior executives are increasingly alive to these risks in the wake of COVID-19.

Join Gilbert + Tobin’s market-leading experts David Clee and Elizabeth Hill for a live webinar on board oversight and monitoring of non-financial risks.

This webinar will explore:

  • the different types of non-financial risk;
  • the impact of failing to oversee and monitor non-financial risk;
  • the roles and responsibilities of directors and officers having regard to the observations made by ASIC’s Corporate Governance Task Force on the board’s role in the oversight and management of non-financial risk;
  • the attitude of other key regulators, including APRA and AUSTRAC; and
  • market changes and international observations.
