Why RM matters for authorities and for the UN
• Globalization has led to an unprecedented accumulation of risks:
• Global suppy chains: risks ripple across continents
• A lot more value in disaster-prone locations
• Efforts to protect people, infrastructure, the
environment & economic activities from hazards need to be globally cohesive and coherent
• Regulations and standards are one of the options available to manage risks

RM in regulatory activity is not new

Key take-aways• Good risk management is good regulatory practice
• Need for setting up institutional mechanisms that allow for structured consultation with business, civil society, professional associations and all key stakeholders
• Define objectives for regulatory action: what is the societal goal
you’re pursuing, is regulatory action the best choice?
• Regulation is just the first step, implementing mechanisms are key
