Hi. I am Ripal Shah. I work as a risk manager in the financial services industry in Australia. This is my blog.
It is about how we can make things easy and fun in the world of Governance, Risk Management, Technology Risk, Compliance and Internal Audit. (Who yawned?? 😉)
Though everyone agrees with the strategic importance of these topics in the success of organisations, the trouble starts with its implementation and particularly applying various tools and techniques. 😜
There is a wide variety of literature and standards available on what ultimate goal on Governance and Risk Management looks like (which also creates a wave of confusion🤦♂️ but that’s a different topic😊), however the implementation of these standards need to be in a situational context.
Without exception, the implementation / improvement in governance and risk management frameworks involves behaviour change. I believe that technology and psychology can be very useful here. I don’t claim to be a psychology / technology expert. I consider myself fortunate that I got an opportunity to see the world from psychology and technology perspective and its possible application in risk framework implementation by standing on the shoulders of giants.
I have a keen interest in financial markets, investments, spiritual growth, probability and management. I haven’t decided anything on that yet but I may post some stuff here. Who knows.😊 Just in case I post some stuff here, all routine disclaimers of personal finance world applies.
I intend to write one post every fortnight. I welcome your views and opinions on my posts. You can send me your views at ripal.ca@gmail.com
I was born in India. I am currently living in Australia. Accordingly, my spellings follow Australian and Indian English style rather than American English.
