Third party risk refers to the potential danger and negative impact on a company’s operations, reputation, and financial stability due to its relationship with external parties, such as vendors, suppliers, contractors, and business partners.
Proactively uncovering external threats means taking a preventive approach to identify and manage potential risks posed by third-party relationships. Instead of waiting for a risk event to occur, companies can use various tools and techniques to anticipate and mitigate risks before they escalate into major problems. By implementing a proactive risk management program, companies can gain a better understanding of the risks and potential impacts of third-party relationships and take the necessary steps to mitigate them.
Types of Third Party Risk
The risks associated with third parties can range from association with politicians, data breaches, financial fraud, operational disruptions, reputational damage, domestic sanctions, legal and regulatory violations, and other harmful events that can affect the company’s performance and competitiveness. While preparing the report, the Riskpro algorithm takes into consideration multiple risks.
Moreover, as regulators are focusing on enhanced due diligence on customers and third parties, it has become imperative for organizations to demonstrate a comprehensive and risk-based Know Your Customer (KYC) or Know Your Vendor (KYV) process to avoid any legal/ regulatory implications.
Select and manage the most reliable suppliers to protect your business against risk, prevent business disruption, and meet diversity, green, and compliance requirements. Stay on top of all the factors that impact a supplier’s ability to deliver – financial, environmental, and political
