Enterprise Risk Management Framework


Full document: (0.13MB)

Overview

Risk can be defined as the potential for loss caused by an event or series of events that can adversely affect the achievement of a company’s business objectives.

Our mission is "To provide innovative, cost effective, and prudent investment management services that address the investment challenges of New Brunswick based public sector funds."

To achieve this mission, our business processes, whether they are strategically-focused, investment related or operational in nature, must continually balance risk and return.

Our enterprise risk management framework has been put in place to integrate strong corporate oversight with a series of well-defined independent risk management systems and processes. Our risk management process involves the participation of the NBIMC Board, management, and external service providers. An outline of the risk governance structure is provided in Appendix A.

The following document presents our philosophy and approach to management of risk by identifying:

  • the types of risks we are facing in our normal business and investment operations and,
  • which parties are accountable for monitoring each risk type, while also outlining the means and timing through which we seek to measure and manage these risks.

We believe that these risk management processes will significantly contribute to maximizing the long-term investment returns within the confines of acceptable levels of risk.
