Tired of a fragmented, expensive approach that adds nothing to the business? So were we.

So we built ERM+. It draws on our combined experience to help business leaders make informed decisions, improve commercial viability and avoid regulatory fines and sanctions, at a fraction of the cost.

Qualitative and quantitative risk, managed as one system

We are driven by a commitment to change how risk is managed in financial services and other regulated sectors. Our aim is to bring qualitative and quantitative risk management together, so firms can operate with confidence and resilience, and show a regulator how they do it.

How we work

  • Practitioner-led

    Built by risk managers who understand the day-to-day running of a risk function under supervision. Our co-founders and associates bring more than 500 years of risk and regulatory experience.

  • Interconnected

    Risks do not exist in silos, so the platform does not treat them that way. Risks, controls, incidents, services and suppliers share one data foundation.

  • Fast and affordable

    Implementation in weeks, not months, at a fraction of the cost of incumbent providers. Value from day one.

Senior risk expertise, without a full-time CRO

Alongside the platform, our team works with firms on a full or fractional basis: to strengthen an existing risk function, or to run it while you build one.

  • Access senior-level risk expertise on demand
  • Enhance or outsource your risk function without the cost of a full-time CRO
  • Strengthen your position ahead of regulatory scrutiny

Twenty minutes will tell us both whether there is anything worth exploring.

We look at what you capture today, what your regulator will ask for, and whether there is a gap. If there is nothing there, no need to take it further.

A gap check, not a pitch. No project, no budget conversation, no access to sensitive data.
