Laws such as the Companies Act and the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act have been reformed to require improved governance via the establishment of risk management and internal control systems. In addition, the outbreak of the recent financial crisis and the spread of pandemic influenza have highlighted risks of an unprecedented reach.

Given this context, risk management activities themselves need to evolve. Risk management that goes beyond a narrow focus on the risks of accidents and disasters and instead comprehensively and systemically covers all risks having an impact on the continued existence of organizations and on corporate value is now in demand.
