The partnership also aims to co-deliver multiple risk management focused training and educational series to equip the risk professionals with knowledge and build capabilities to deliver value to the profession.

Speaking on the occasion, RIMS CEO Ms. Mary Roth said: “From a global pandemic to a surge in technology dependence, organizations around the world have placed greater emphasis on building strong risk management capabilities to navigate these unpredictable disruptions.  To address dynamic risks, education is the key.  We are proud to work with NSE Academy to create opportunities for business leaders – and future business leaders – to support their organization’s growth, especially during the most challenging of times.”

“This educational partnership with NSE Academy will go a long way in delivering RIMS values and objectives in the region,” said RIMS Director – Global Development: South Asia Gopal Krishnan.  “This will thereby help to elevate the risk management professional standards to better address the business realities and concerns faced by India Inc.,” he added.

Speaking on the occasion, NSE Academy Ltd.
