Risk management with effective Governance and Compliance.

Constant technological advances in New Zealand make for an exciting business environment, but adoption requires a formal process to manage the associated risks. Meanwhile, increasingly complex regulatory requirements demand that you demonstrate compliance and solution effectiveness to boards, New Zealand government bodies, and stakeholders.

Integrating your IT risk management with enterprise risk and broader organisational strategic objectives for success is crucial. Without an IT governance and compliance strategy, all your risk and compliance capabilities exist in different silos, making it difficult to quickly deal with risk and uncertainty.

Streamlined compliance solutions.

There’s no question that a tsunami of regulatory change is on the horizon for many New Zealand industries, particularly banking, financial services and superannuation. In addition to specific regulatory changes to be carefully planned, prioritised and managed, organisations will also need to take a broader look at how they approach non-financial risk management. We can help your Governance and Compliance needs.


We understand how important it is to determine how much risk your organisation can accept without compromising returns. We can help you improve your IT risk management or assist with designing and implementing a new process with IT Risk Assessments and compliance testing delivered by industry experts.

What is the role of governance and compliance?

In today's rapidly evolving business landscape, governance and compliance play pivotal roles in ensuring a company's stability and success. Governance encompasses the framework of rules, practices, and processes that guide decision-making and operational management. Compliance, on the other hand, revolves around adhering to relevant laws and regulations that safeguard the organisation's integrity. Together, these twin pillars enable businesses to proactively address potential risks, audit performance, and maintain industry standards. By embracing effective governance and compliance strategies, organisations establish a robust foundation for digital transformation and secure technological evolution. Through meticulous oversight, they navigate complexities, enhance their resilience, and confidently drive innovation while staying aligned with legal and ethical frameworks.

Frequently asked questions

What does Governance and Compliance mean?

Governance involves the framework of rules, practices, and processes that guide decision-making and manage operations. Compliance ensures adherence to relevant laws and regulations. Together, they help businesses anticipate risks, assess performance, and meet industry standards. Effective oversight of Governance and Compliance supports risk management, legal obligations, and the use of GRC software, tools, and systems. By assessing and managing risks, organisations ensure stability and regulatory alignment. GRC models and programs, guided by senior management, ensure compliance and industry-standard practices. This comprehensive approach, known as Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC), aligns operations, minimises risks, and safeguards integrity.


Why is IT Governance and Compliance important?

In technology-driven businesses, IT Governance and Compliance hold paramount importance. Establishing governance policies ensures that decisions concerning organisational technology are made efficiently, aligning with both short and long-term objectives. Compliance frameworks offer crucial safety and security in today's digital landscape, safeguarding data from internal and external threats.

What are some of the challenges associated with Governance and Compliance?

IT Governance and Compliance present various hurdles for businesses, such as determining necessary measures to uphold IT system integrity. Challenges also include ensuring policy adherence, securing resources for activities, and consistent monitoring. As technology advances, maintaining current Governance and Compliance needs becomes complex. Expanding organisations often lack unified Governance and Compliance frameworks for different regions. The complexity deepens when embracing new tech, cultures, practices, and varying regulations across jurisdictions.

Meeting these challenges requires meticulous risk management, aligning with regulatory obligations, and using GRC tools. Effective Governance Risk and Compliance (GRC) programs, along with internal audits, are vital in addressing these complexities. As businesses evolve, the unified approach to Governance and Compliance management becomes crucial.
