Analysis of business processes and areas exposed to liability under Legislative Decree 231/2001
Risk assessment is the preliminary stage for developing or updating a truly effective 231 Organisational Model. It makes it possible to identify the company activities in which conduct relevant to the entity’s liability may occur, by analysing processes, functions, delegated powers, relationships with third parties and the controls already in place.
The purpose is to avoid generic models and build a system that reflects the company’s actual structure. The analysis helps determine where the risk is concrete, which safeguards are already in place and which organisational, procedural or documentary measures need to be introduced.
