sector initiative for enhancing risk management
and internal control, sponsored and funded by:
American Institute of CPAs
Association of American Accountants
Financial Executives International
The Institute of Internal Auditors

standard or “common language” of enterprise-wide
risk management, adopted in various regulatory
frameworks and activities such as:
BASEL II
SOX
Regulatory examinations

COSO ERM-Inspired BSC Evolution
Strategy-Risk Management Double Loop Once strategy is articulated for all
levels of the organization from the
top-down, it became easier to
Proactive Risk

Management and
Management and
Compliance

with implementing strategy.
Corporate level
COSO-based control self-
assessment (CSA) was introduced
Cascading Aggregating on to proactively manage risks
Strategy
BU level
Risk derived from the strategy execution
(Top-down) (Bottom-up) process. This process was adopted
as a bank-wide common objective
called “Proactive Risk Management
Division 1 and Compliance” in BSC.
CSA was conducted at the lowest
Division 2
organization level and CSA results
were aggregated from the bottom.
Division 3
The BSC-CSA linkage created a
Strategy-Risk management double
loop for BTMU.
