Definitions of common terms used in governance and compliance programs.
Governance is the framework of rules, roles, and responsibilities that guide how a business makes decisions, assigns accountability, and ensures ethical conduct.
Regulatory compliance means adhering to applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards to avoid penalties and protect the company’s integrity.
Risk management is the process of identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks that could affect the achievement of business objectives.
