Analysis of the COSO risk management model: Main aspects

The relevance of the study was determined by the growing uncertainty in the external environment, which requires the implementation of effective risk management systems. The aim of the study was to analyse the key aspects of the Committee of Sponsoring Organisations of the Treadway Commission Enterprise Risk Management (COSO ERM) model and to justify its application for integrated risk management in enterprises. The study uses methods of analysis of scientific sources, structural and logical generalisation, and a systematic approach. The theoretical and practical aspects of risk management in an enterprise are considered, taking into account the challenges and trends of the global market. A systematic approach to risk management is analysed, which provides comprehensive coverage of all business processes related to the identification, assessment and response to risks. The key components of the COSO ERM methodology, which is one of the most recognised in global practice, are identified. The COSO ERM model is based on the principles of integrated management, where risks are viewed not as isolated threats, but as part of strategic planning and management processes. The application of the three-component COSO structure, which included enterprise objectives, internal environment and organisational levels of influence, was considered. This approach made it possible to harmonise strategic, operational and reporting processes within a single control system. The essence of the relationship between the main elements of risk management was revealed, which made it possible to adapt the model to the specifics of the functioning of enterprises in various industries. The feasibility of implementing the COSO model as a tool for increasing business resilience to external uncertainty is argued. Methodological approaches to improving risk management in accordance with the requirements of economic security and strategic development are proposed. The practical value of the study lies in the possibility of using the results by specialists in the field of risk management, internal audit and strategic management
