Risk Ledger

Third party risk management (TPRM) is a structured approach to analyze and control risks arising to the organization from third parties. Mainly third parties are: Vendors Customers Joint ventures Counterparties Fourth Parties Third-party relationships can be a significant source of enterprise risk. The propagation of third-party partners, regulatory pressure, and the complexity of cyber-related risks has led companies to dedicate more time and attention to the potential risks by third parties. They enable companies to be flexible and competitive in a global business environment. These relationships often allow companies to delegate important tasks so that they can focus on their core competencies. With the benefits gained from third parties comes related risks that pose significant threats to a business, such as cyber breaches, business continuity challenges, or reputational damage.
