Risk framework Enterprise risk management (ERM) at Atul involves identifying, evaluating, prioritising, categorising, mitigating, monitoring and reporting principal risks through bottom-up and top-down approaches. The bottom-up approach engages businesses and cross-functional teams in risk identification and mitigation planning, while the top-down approach ensures comprehensive framework effectiveness and long-term risk strategising. Risks are categorised into major themes to prioritise mitigation strategies, overseen by an ERM council of Senior Management officials and the Risk Management Committee of the Board.
