The RiskTech Journal article "Navigating IFRS S1 and IFRS S2: A Pathway for Integrated Risk Management and Sustainability" explains the International Sustainability Standards Board's (ISSB) new standards, IFRS S1 and IFRS S2, which are designed to standardize and increase transparency in sustainability-related disclosures. The hosts argue that integrated risk management (IRM) provides a valuable framework for companies to manage the transition to these standards, enabling them to integrate sustainability risks into their overall risk management strategy and achieve compliance in a phased and proportional manner. They also emphasize the importance of aligning disclosure capabilities with risk tolerance and capacity, promoting continuous improvement, and transparent communication of progress. The episode offers practical steps for companies to implement these standards, such as starting with climate disclosures, leveraging existing frameworks, and implementing a phased approach. Ultimately, the article advocates for adopting an IRM approach to sustainability disclosures as a key enabler of ISSB compliance, which will help companies meet regulatory requirements, build investor trust, and enhance long-term value.

This episode recaps the keynote address given by John A. Wheeler, founder and CEO of Wheelhouse Advisors, at the Riskonnect Annual User Conference in October 2024. The address focused on the need for organizations to transition from traditional risk management approaches to a more integrated and forward-looking model known as Integrated Risk Management (IRM). Wheeler argues that the rapid pace of change and increased interconnectedness of risks require organizations to become more proactive and adaptable, just as a self-driving car navigates a complex environment. He introduced the IRM Navigator™ framework, which outlines four key components: goals, processes, assets, and policies, and emphasizes the importance of aligning these components to ensure that risk management becomes a strategic enabler, rather than a reactive function. Wheeler concludes by highlighting the future of risk management, which he envisions as being driven by artificial intelligence and autonomous systems.
