This book examines enterprise risk management in the fourth industrial revolution, and the technologies associated with this phenomenon. In doing so, it seeks to understand these technologies’ potential capabilities, and how they could be utilised in the enterprise risk management setting. With this, the book first details the fourth industrial revolution (4IR), and discusses the concept of enterprise risk management, the stakeholders involved, the typical information stakeholders will be responsible for, and their role in integrating risk management information. The book then examines the information processing steps and the new capabilities in the enterprise risk setting necessitated by the capabilities of the 4IR technologies to harness, analyse and integrate information for decision-making and understanding internal and external contexts. In the final chapter, the book conceptualises enterprise risk management in the 4IR, and maps out potential role changes in this space.
