Reputation Risk Management

PROTECTING THE EQUITY OF YOUR BRAND

As the world becomes more complex and interconnected, every organization will, at some time or another, face a crisis situation that threatens its reputation and operations. “Black Swan” events have exposed the shortcomings of traditional risk management practices, driving crisis awareness, preparation, and resilience higher up the boardroom agenda.

STRATIUUM’s reputation risk management solutions span the entire crisis continuum to help clients identify, assess, prevent, prepare, respond to, and recover from critical business events. Our experienced advisers have direct experience of crises situations and partner with boards and executives before, during, and after critical business events to equip them with the foresight and situational awareness needed to build resilience, navigate the aftermath, and preserve the equity of their organization’s brand.

Understanding the current state of an organization’s crisis resilience requires the constant evaluation of an escalating threat landscape and complex regulatory environment.

We help boards and senior executives identify and assess risks that pose significant threats to their bottom line and market standing, clarifying the true nature of the potential operational disruption and repuational damage inherent in various crises scenarios.
