Abstract
Enterprise risk management (ERM) has been the topic of increased media attention in recent years. Many organizations have implemented ERM programs, consulting firms have established specialized ERM units, and universities have developed ERM-related courses and research centres. Despite the heightened interest in ERM by academics and practitioners, there is an absence of empirical evidence regarding the impact of such programs on firm value. The objective of this study is to measure the extent to which specific firms have implemented ERM programs and, then, to assess the value implications of these programs. We focus our attention in this study on UAE corporate. This research studies the ERM framework of UAE firms with the help of a survey that was answered by the Risk Managers of various corporate. The research gives information regarding the ERM processes in these firms and the various methods and tools used for the process. The research provides in depth study of ERM process in UAE and helps in assessing the efficiency of the programme.
