StrategicRISK rewards European risk management excellence

StrategicRISK has rewarded those individuals and organisations that showed excellence and innovation in risk management this year.

The Awards were presented at a gala dinner event in Berlin on May 7, 2009.

StrategicRISK would like to extend its congratulations to all of the winners and highly commended companies. In addition, StrategicRISK would like to thank all sponsors who supported this year’s Awards .

Sue Copeman, editor of StrategicRISK said: ‘You might think that, in a year of global recession and corporate cut-backs, risk management endeavours were constrained. This is far from the case: Our two panels of judges both remarked on the high quality of entries and had to deliberate long and hard when it came to choosing our winners. Congratulations to these winners and also those who have been specially commended. Your achievements have been outstanding.’
