Community Discussion – Cannabis Risk Management Framework: Introduction to Risk Culture

Community Discussion – Cannabis Risk Management Framework: Introduction to Risk Culture

by | Nov 18, 2020 |

Improve your risk culture by hearing from Jonathan’s experience and asking questions to validate your current practices.

Building an effective cannabis risk management framework is critical to meet your business objectives. One of the starting elements of effective risk management is an effective risk culture. Risk culture is established when top management creates strong risk values and beliefs that are shared by all members within the business. Starting this process may seem daunting, but breaking it down into specific actions will help.

Join ACCCE for the next community discussion where guest speaker Jonathan Fornaci, the Chief Strategy Officer from Clarion Compliance, will talk about the internal control environment component of the CRMF, the importance of tone from the top in creating a culture of risk, how a Commercial Cannabis Business’s risk appetite and risk strategy impact business objectives, and how to formalize a risk culture through a risk program. Jonathan will also answer any questions the audience may have.

Compliance Management Best Practices: Putting the Risk Assessment to Work for You

Compliance Management Best Practices: Putting the Risk Assessment to Work for You

by | Nov 19, 2020 |

Cannabis Risk Officers, save time and money by utilizing your risk assessment to identify the most critical risks that need to be addressed.

Every commercial cannabis business is unique. The amount of resources applied to compliance management should vary based on your compliance risk. A compliance risk assessment will assist you in demonstrating to your stakeholders the appropriate compliance resourcing by showing your business’s understanding of the most critical regulatory risks. Understanding the likely impacts, frequency of occurrence, and current quality of controls provides a roadmap to best allocate resources to manage the highest residual risk issues first. This allows you to manage your compliance costs based on your business’s unique complexity and maturity. In this webinar, learn how to create a robust risk assessment based on the risk drivers of compliance to focus on higher-risk issues.

Maintaining compliance in the commercial cannabis industry can be daunting, considering how highly regulated the industry is and how quickly rules change. Having a formal methodology to identify high risk issues by compliance risk driver will help you quickly identify your compliance needs; however, identifying high-risk issues is not enough. You must correct compliance issues outside of your risk appetite. To demonstrate effective compliance management, learn how to communicate across the business with issue management and follow up on the implementation with appropriate assurance to determine if the new controls meet your cannabis risk management framework expectations. These actions create proof of proactive compliance, which is considered favorably by stakeholders even if noncompliance is found.
