Besides our people, our brand is our most important asset. Good governance protects both. Our approach is driven by the same values that drive everything else we do: putting our customers first; using the latest digital technology; and empowering our people.
At FWD, we run three lines of defence. We’re supported and advised by an in-house risk management and compliance team. This line works with our Board of Directors, optimising the trade-off between risk and reward. Our third line is our audit committee, operating independently of our business. These three lines work together, and ensure our risk management operates efficiently, and is properly resourced.
