Agenda
Overview
The global enterprise governance, risk and compliance market size was valued at USD 47,223.0 million in 2022 and is projected to expand at a CAGR of 13.8% from 2023 to 2030 (by Grand View Research). The growth of this market can be attributed to the benefits of implementing EGRC, which include stability, optimization, transparency, reduced costs, and consistency, among others.
Although the scope of growth is not isolated – there are interconnected risks that require comprehensive solutions. The need for a conscious, holistic approach to governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) has never been more critical to organizations.
As the business environment changes, companies need to evolve their GRC strategies to maintain a comprehensive view of interconnected risks, understand the financial implications of those risks, and make more informed decisions at all levels.
