"Defining an Enterprise Risk Management Solutions Vendor"

The broadening view of enterprise risk management (ERM) has invited an equally broad mix of vendors marketing themselves as enterprise risk management companies.

This industry analysis for the risk management market addresses:

2. when the ERM designation can accurately apply to a vendor; and
3. how vendors are repositioning to add more value as ERM solutions.
