RISGRA® - in a Nutshell

What

RISGRA® is a powerful Entity-Relationship Knowledge Graph model that comprises a comprehensive, integrated set of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) concepts & constructs.

Sitting at the functional interface between Risk, Finance, Compliance and Operations, RISGRA® is a holistic representation of the risk universe (Taxonomy) and risk management capabilities (Ontology) of a complex large-corporate organisation, operating in a regulated sector, set in the context of its wider end-to-end value chain.

RISGRA® is a higher-level implementation of the Entity-Relationship graph model, making extensive use of nested and chained Relations (hyper-graph / hyper-edge), necessary to reflect the deeply inter-connected, dynamic and nuanced nature of risk, and risk management capabilities, in a regulated organisation.

RISGRA® models the complex, non-linear decision processes, including causal links, tipping points and networked cascade effects between risks along the full value chain, and integrates rules, weights and temporal analysis to enable powerful inference.

So what?

RISGRA® is a foundational model with commercial applications that include:

Augmentation of pan-organisation & pan-value-chain Decision Intelligence capabilities and projects, for example:

  • Digital Twin: design, build and operation

  • Data Mesh: RISGRA® schema enables traversal and powerful querying across disparate risk, finance, operations and compliance data sets

  • Neural-Symbolic AI in which Symbolic foundational models (hyper-graph) bring real-world “Judgement” as guard-rails to counter-balance & complement the “Predictive” power of Neural AI models (LLM + ML)

Sector-specific applications - a mix of verticals & horizontals, for example:

  • Financial services: corporate & commercial banking; general insurance; asset management

  • Aviation: commercial airline operation & compliance; aviation insurance underwriting

  • Agricultural lending: agricultural credit risk assessment, underwriting and portfolio management

  • External audit: traversal of granular ESG disclosures to discern the (IFRS & ISSB-prescribed) connecting narrative between sustainability related financial disclosures, and general purpose financial disclosures.

Now what?
