By integrating these three components, GRC helps organizations operate ethically, mitigate risks, and meet compliance requirements efficiently.
Governance involves establishing policies, procedures, and frameworks that guide an organization's direction and decision-making. It ensures that business activities align with strategic goals and stakeholder expectations. Effective governance promotes transparency, accountability, and ethical behavior across the organization.
Risk management is the process of identifying, assessing, and addressing potential threats that could hinder an organization's operations or objectives. These risks can be internal, like operational inefficiencies, or external, such as market fluctuations or cyber threats. By proactively managing risks, organizations can minimize negative impacts and capitalize on opportunities.
Compliance ensures that an organization adheres to relevant laws, regulations, and internal policies. This includes industry standards, legal requirements, and ethical guidelines. Maintaining compliance helps organizations avoid legal penalties, protect their reputation, and build trust with stakeholders.
Every organization, regardless of size or sector, faces external regulations, internal policies, and operational risks. A GRC framework helps manage these demands in a structured and efficient way.
Organizations benefit from GRC by:
Industries like finance, healthcare, manufacturing, and tech are especially reliant on strong GRC due to tight regulatory scrutiny. But even mid-sized companies and public institutions are investing in GRC to increase agility and stakeholder trust in a fast-changing market.

Explore other terms, concepts and legislation in the Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) to help you simplify your risk management & internal controls.
The UK Corporate Governance Code is a cornerstone of corporate accountability and transparency for companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. Issued by the Financial Reporting Council (FRC), the Code sets out best practices for board leadership, risk oversight, audit processes, and stakeholder engagement.
A Tax Control Framework (TCF) is a structured approach designed to manage and control tax-related processes and risks. In Dutch practice, the terms “Tax Assurance,” “Risico-matrix” (Risk Matrix), and “Tax Monitoring” are often used interchangeably or in close connection with TCF, as they cover overlapping concepts and tools.
In Denmark, the implementation of a Tax Control Framework (TCF) is increasingly seen as essential for companies aiming to manage tax risks effectively, stay compliant with evolving regulations, and meet rising demands for transparency from the Danish Tax Authorities (Skattestyrelsen).
