Company Overview |
| RiiЯ measures, analyses and monitors risks to reputation. In the aftermath of serious corporate governance failures and other major catastrophes, managing reputational risk has become all the more important due to regulatory compliance requirements, strengthened regulatory powers, the growing influence of pressure groups, rising stakeholder expectations and communications technology. We therefore believe that better and more intelligent anticipation of risk is needed.
The RiiЯ approach analyses reputation in the context of corporate strategy and adds the 'outside-in' dimension to existing ERM practice. This is an actionable service analysing how reputational causes can threaten or enhance a firm’s ability to execute.
The RiiЯ model and approach has the academic validation of one of the world’s leading ERM academics – Professor Jean-Paul Louisot. RiiЯ is led by three principals with significant experience in corporate branding, reputation, risk, PR and media – Tom Vesey, Koenraad van Hasselt and Nik Vitkovitch. Prof Louisot, Jenny Rayner, one of the UK’s leading Risk practitioners and Rick Funston, former National Risk Practice leader of Deloitte US and developer of the ‘risk intelligence’ concept, are non-executive advisors to the principals. |
