REVIEWED BY: ROGER S. BAILEY, GENERAL MANAGER
SUBJECT: RECEIVE ANNUAL UPDATE OF THE STRATEGIC RISK INVENTORYAND
ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT (ERM) PROGRAM
Background on Enterprise Risk Management
Organizations have traditionally managed risks in a distributed way, with a variety of internal functions that
identify and manage risks. Prior to ERM, these efforts were not typically centrally coordinated or reported
on. A central goal of ERM is improving this capability and coordination, while providing summary level
reporting to provide a unified picture of risk for stakeholders and improving an organization's ability to
manage these risks effectively. The Central San Strategic Risk Inventory is used for two purposes:
As an input to the internal auditor's annual work plan. The Strategic Risk Inventory has
informed the risk assessment process which leads to selection of internal audit focus areas for the
year.
2. For monitoring, control, and reporting on risks. The ERM Team meets twice per year to
discuss progress on mitigating the risks identified in the Strategic Risk Inventory. Updates to the
Strategic Risk Inventory are reported to the Administration Committee and Board semiannually.
The attached presentation constitutes the annual update on the Strategic Risk Inventory, and highlights
changes in risk rankings as well as new risks identified (if any).

Risk Assessment and Scoring
Risk assessed on 4 elements, each scored from 1 (low) to 10 (hi)
,, Probability -how often will it happen
2) Severity - how bad will it be
3) Mitigation Still to Do -how much work remains to manage the risk
4) Speed of Onset -how much notice do we get before it occurs
Earthquake = 10 vs Proposed Legislation = 2
Risk Score is the total of four element scores
Ranking based on Risk Score: Highest score = Highest Rank
