As businesses increasingly rely on third-party vendors, suppliers, and contractors, managing and mitigating the risks associated with these relationships has never been more critical. The conference in Saudi Arabia is designed to equip organizations with the tools, knowledge, and strategies they need to effectively manage third-party risks in a fast-evolving regulatory and business environment.
Why Attend?
In-depth Focus on Third-Party Risk
Unlike broad risk management frameworks, third-party risk management zeroes in on external relationships—where some of the most unpredictable and impactful risks lie. From cybersecurity threats to regulatory compliance issues, the conference will cover the full spectrum of risks posed by third parties.
Aligning with Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030
As Saudi Arabia continues its ambitious Vision 2030 reforms, organizations are expanding their reach and reliance on third-party service providers. Managing these relationships effectively is crucial for maintaining business continuity and ensuring regulatory compliance.
This conference will provide an invaluable opportunity for decision-makers, risk professionals, and compliance experts to exchange insights, discuss emerging trends, and network with industry leaders.
Key Topics to be Covered:
• Building a Strong TPRM Framework: Learn how to design and implement an effective third-party risk management framework.
• Cybersecurity Risks with Third Parties: Address potential vulnerabilities introduced by external vendors and service providers.
• Regulatory Compliance: Understand the legal obligations for organizations in Saudi Arabia and how to stay compliant with evolving standards.
• Supplier Due Diligence: Explore best practices for vetting and monitoring third parties to ensure alignment with your organization’s values and policies.
• Risk Monitoring and Assessment: Learn how to assess, monitor, and mitigate third-party risks throughout the contract lifecycle.
• Crisis Management and Business Continuity: Prepare for potential disruptions and ensure continuity by managing supplier risks effectively.
