Data & Benchmarks
A member's specific challenge or objective may sometimes be best addressed through data and benchmarking. This can be using Risk Leadership Network tools, or research we develop to help you get peer insights in a tangible format.
Custom benchmarks
A custom benchmark can be facilitated by the Risk Leadership Network team to provide peer comparisons and insights.
Some recent examples of custom benchmarks produced for members include:
Several of our members are looking to either introduce a risk system for the first time or switch from existing software to a new tool.
Helping to support members on this journey is our latest risk software survey, which provides data and perspectives from 54 organisations on what risk systems they are using, how well those systems are working and approaches to implementation.
One of our members wanted to enhance their board risk committee reporting and asked RLN to benchmark leading peer approaches.
We surveyed risk leaders at 14 companies to find out what the focus of their board risk
reporting is, which topics get the most attention, and how they are using these reports to drive discussion and decision-making.
Third-party risk management (TPRM) is a leading objective for many of our members.
For this benchmark, we interviewed risk leaders at 13 companies to gain first-hand insights on how they’re setting up dedicated frameworks around third-party risk, as well as methodologies for supplier risk assessment.
Risk Leadership Network's Horizon Scanner 2.0
Delivering AI-powered emerging risk intelligence and turning it into actionable, strategic insight for your organisation.
Risk Leadership Network's Horizon Scanner is a structured, repeatable emerging risk process that delivers actionable emerging risk intelligence for your organisation. Developed to support a number of our members with the shared goal of leveraging AI to develop their emerging risk programme, all members can now tap into this process to make rapid progress at their own organisations.
Risk Reporting Comparison Tool
Our Risk Reporting Comparison Tool is an interactive database of the risk sections of company annual reports
Built in response to a request from our members to improve the efficiency of risk reporting, it uses data from 700+ company annual reports to enable you to gather and analyse external data on principal/material risks to inform your risk reporting strategy.
Emerging Risk Reporting Comparison Tool
Save time on identifying emerging risk trends with our interactive database of externally reported emerging risks.
Created for members who wanted to validate their approach to emerging risk reporting, it draws from 90+ company reports and 36+ industry reports.
Risk Maturity Self-Assessment
Many of our new members conduct our Risk Maturity Self-Assessment to help guide their risk agenda and roadmap. Developed to support our members and produced in collaboration with highly experienced risk practitioners, members receive:
A self-assessment report
A repeatable competency assessment over 10 categories (including Governance, Policy, Identification & assessment, Controls & assurance and Reporting & insights).
A cohort benchmark
To see how their maturity in the 10 areas compares to a requested sector (e.g. retail).
A risk maturity roadmap
Including resources and collaboration to support their continual improvement.
