He is a dedicated risk management professional with a keen focus on identifying, assessing, managing, and controlling potential events that may affect entities’ objectives and prevent/ detecting fraud. “Risk assessment is the overall process of risk identification, risk analysis, and risk evaluation. Risk assessment is at the centre of a typical risk management process. Internal audit’s risk assessments start by considering inherent risk, the combination of internal and external risks in their pure, uncontrolled state,” said Alaba in his opening remarks.
