Strategic Risk Management Guidelines

These guidelines reflect and respond to the findings set out in the Auditor-General of Queensland Report to Parliament No. 6 for 2007: Beyond Agency Risk and the Auditor-General's subsequent Better Practice Guide: Risk Management. In addition, they are consistent with the requirements of the Financial Administration and Audit Act 1977 and the Financial Management Standard 1997 and the principles set out in AS/NZS 4360:2004 Risk Management.

In the context of these guidelines, strategic risk management applies to the process of considering and managing whole-of-Government risks across the Queensland public sector.

This document is a guide only, not a comprehensive reference for risk management. The guidelines seek to add to and contextualise the substantial body of existing material relating to risk management, including the Queensland Audit Office's better practice material.
