ABSTRACT Globalization places greater emphasis on the development of transnational alliances. The greatest benefits from alliances are derived from high-level information sharing, but vulnerability escalates with information sharing. This study examines risk in transnational alliances based on a theoretical model drawing from enterprise risk management (ERM) as a strategic management effort. This theoretical model posits that ERM strategies focus on business risk as the primary determinant of alliance partner selection and continuity, particularly within global relationships, whereas prior management control research focused on trust. The purpose of this study is to examine the influence of ERM on risk and trust associated with transnational alliances and the resulting impact on interorganizational information sharing. Survey data are gathered from 200 senior-level managers monitoring transnational alliances. Structural equation modeling is used to test the hypothesized relationships. Results provide strong support for the research model, showing that high ERM is associated with decreased risk, increased trust, and enhanced information sharing. Given the ongoing debate over the relationship directionality between trust and risk, we conducted additional sensitivity testing. Competing models focusing on trust as the key control mechanism are tested to assess the strength of our research model. Our risk-oriented research model demonstrates stronger explanatory power than competing models. Overall, our results show ERM substantially alters strategic management of transnational alliances, and has become a major influence on interorganizational risk, trust, and information sharing.

In the current dynamic environment, organizations need a more anticipatory and effective risk management system. Implementing the holistic Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) process will perceive, analyze, and assess risks as they must be regarded from the entire enterprise’s perspective. The research aims to empirically analyze the effect of ERM practices on the Competitive Advantage (CA) and examine the moderating role of Organizational Culture (OC) in the Software industry of Pakistan. The primary data were obtained from 250 respondents through the questionnaire method. The validity and reliability were analyzed by using Structural Equation Modeling Analysis, PLS Algorithm, and Bootstrapping. The results show that the implementation of ERM has a significant effect on firms’ competitive advantage. The analysis supports the hypothesis and identifies the positive moderating effect of organizational culture in carrying out ERM programs, which can enhance organizational competitiveness. This study is useful for managers to help them in the planning and decision-making phase so that they can act responsibly in a rapidly changing environment and consider organizational culture as one of the key factors of the ERM program that helps accomplish organizational competitiveness.

This study provides empirical evidence of the interaction of sustainability reporting and Enterprise risk management on business performance. A number of previous literature has found a significant positive effect of ERM implementation on overall business performance, however, the number of studies investigating the interaction of sustainability reporting and ERM is still limited. We build this research model based on modern portfolio theory and stakeholder theory. Data testing was carried out using the moderation regression method in examining the three variable relationships above. The results showed that there was a significant positive effect of ERM on business performance as measured using EVA. Meanwhile, sustainability reporting, although able to strengthen the coefficient of determination relationship between ERM and EVA, does not have a significant moderating effect on the relationship between the two variables.

The alarming rate of corporate failures as seen universally has necessitated this study apparently; the failures have known no boundary as it cuts across both the very big organizations and the very small corporate entities especially financial industries. The objective of this study is to align corporate governance (CG) with Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) adoption in the Nigeria Deposit Money banks (DMBs). The study adopted cross-sectional research design, survey method and questionnaire technique to collect data in 21 Nigerian DMBs. A total of 722 questionnaires were distributed, out of which 435 were found usable for further analysis. The research adopted Structural Equation Modeling in Stata for the data analysis. Empirical evidence suggests that internal audit effectiveness, human resource competency and top management commitment were positively significant. This implies that there is a significant positive relationship between CG and ERM adoption. Conclusively, the study has provided insightful results for the banking industry, regulators, practitioners and academia that will potentially assist in policy formulation, implementation and evaluation. Thus, a clarion calls for all the stakeholders in the industry to guarantee broad implementation of ERM in all the banks in compliance with the CBN Code of corporate governance.

The aim of this study is to determine if there is a relationship between the number of commissioners on the committee, ownership concentration, the Risk Management Committee, business size, and leverage on enterprise risk management. Take, for example, insurance companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Purposeful sampling was used in the sampling process. Supplementary data was obtained from the website of the Indonesia Stock Exchange. Panel data regression analysis was used as the research method. Although business size had an effect on enterprise risk management transparency, board size, stake concentration, the risk management committee, and leverage had little effect. By integrating the variables Board of Commissioners Size and Ownership Concentration, as well as employing dynamic equation modeling to examine the above relationships, which have been overlooked in previous analyses, and analyzing more recent evidence from a developed world perspective, this study contributes to the management accounting literature and organization theory. The findings would be useful to Indonesian practitioners, especially those in management positions in insurance companies and financial institutions.

The implementation of holistic risk management, enterprise risk management (ERM), is believed to contribute significantly to the successful performance of modern-day organizations that operate in an increasingly volatile and dynamic environment. In an environment of scarce resources and information uncertainty, ERM, risk culture, and strategic planning is required to face an unstable business environment to achieve organizational goals. Several conceptual and empirical studies have provided mixed evidence on the value relevance of ERM. Scholars have also demonstrated that the effects of ERM on performance are contingent upon certain contextual variables. Currently, the academic literature is silent on the joint relationship of ERM, risk culture, strategic planning, and organizational performance. The purpose of this study is to uncover this research gap by analytically reviewing pertinent conceptual and empirical literature to establish the possibility that the impact of ERM on organizational performance is transmitted through risk culture and strategic planning. This paper advances these evolving suggestions, which hinges on the conclusion that the direct effect of ERM on organizational performance is debatable and hence inconclusive due to the possible mediating influence of risk culture and strategic planning. A framework is conceptualized to examine the mediating effects of these two constructs on the relationship. The study proposes partial least squares structural equation modeling for statistical analysis using the unexplored multiple mediation analysis in the ERM academic literature. This paper’s postulations would guide empirical research in various contexts to address the knowledge gaps in the extant literature.

ABSTRACT Context: family involvement creates specific goals that include family interests and values, and is used to pursue the family’s vision, creating effective corporate governance and risk management practices. Objective: our objective is to evaluate the relationship between family influence and enterprise risk management in Brazilian family businesses. Method: data from 142 family businesses was analyzed using descriptive statistics and structural equation modeling. The construct of enterprise risk management comprised: identification, evaluation, response, and communication. Family influence was captured by power, experience, and culture. Results: the results broaden the understanding that, among the three family dimensions investigated, culture is the one that better explains risk management practices. Conclusions: we concluded that the higher the level of family culture, the higher the level of attention to enterprise risk management.
