The AMXi ERM approach minimizes cost and time to implement by leveraging the corporation's existing investment in employees, methodologies, frameworks, industry standards, policies, procedures, models and infrastructure. Training is incorporated in implementation to enhance the understanding of risks and leads to institutionalization of holistic risk management. The AMXi ERM Program facilitates the protection of Directors by providing an understanding of major risk, helping them become "actively engaged" in the independent validation of senior executive claims that is required by business judgment rules. Senior executives, managers and staff benefit from uniform, timely and accurate risk management reports and dashboards, with drill-down information. The enterprise-wide understanding and management of major risks significantly improves resiliency, agility, financial performance, growth, competitive advantage and augmentation of stakeholder value.
