Deloitte named a risk leader

“Of the industry recognition Deloitte has earned over the years, this placement from Gartner ranks among the top,” said Adel Melek, Managing Director, Enterprise Risk Services, Deloitte Global. “We believe Deloitte’s unwavering commitment to clients and the significant investments we have made in our people and technologies are all reflected in this assessment.” 

Gartner defines risk management as “the strategic discipline of assessing, prioritizing, monitoring and controlling the impact of uncertainty on objectives.”  

“Deloitte considers this positioning as a ‘Leader’ as a reflection of its member firms’ commitment to helping clients integrate risk management into the business,” said Henry Ristuccia, Global Leader, Governance, Regulatory & Risk Strategies, Deloitte Global. “Deloitte’s Risk Transformation framework is a prime example, addressing strategic and operational risks as well as risks related to governance, culture, technology and infrastructure, helping organizations regardless of industry and geography get ahead of risk.”

Cyber Risk Services and Crisis Management round out broad portfolio

Deloitte considers cyber risk services to rank among its most important offerings in the marketplace. 

“The terms ‘cyber’ and ‘risk’ appear together with increasing frequency in the news,” said Ted DeZabala, Global Leader, Cyber Risk Services, Deloitte Global. “We believe the inclusion of cyber services in this report reinforces the point that cyber has rapidly become an essential component of comprehensive risk management programs, as companies strive to become secure, vigilant, and resilient.” 

Another new service that gained mention in the report was crisis management. 

“Member firm professionals always listen to clients and evolve our solutions to meet their clients' needs,” said Jeremy Smith, Global Leader, Crisis Management services, Deloitte Global. “To that end, we’ve added new services within crisis management that integrate Deloitte’s existing capabilities—forensic, restructuring, financial crime, cyber, and resilience services—to provide an end-end crisis management solution.”
