Internal Audit & Risk Management

Effective and agile risk management practices are integral to sustainable and responsible growth. The rollout of sound Risk Management practices across the Group is continuously reinforced.  

The internal audit continues to focus on the areas of most significant risks to the Group to assure that mitigations and responses are in place.   

The Head of Internal Audit and Risk Management provides an independent assurance that the Group’s risk management, governance, and internal control processes are operating effectively and evaluates risks and internal controls implemented by management to effectively manage risk within the tolerable level. He reports the main risks and internal control findings to the RMACs and Boards of subsidiary companies. 

The risk management framework of Rogers encompasses its risk management structure, culture, journey, appetite, and approach.
