A practical next step

For each significant risk, identify the decision-maker, the information they receive and the action they can take. Sample the records of actual decisions. A smaller set of useful, maintained reports can reveal more than a large collection of disconnected documents.

Make the work accountable

Record the evidence you have, the gaps that remain, the owner of each action and the date for review. Escalate unresolved risks through your institution’s governance processes.
