ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT<br />

The Board is pleased to share the activities of <strong>Maxis</strong> Enterprise Risk Management in relation to the Group in respect of the financial<br />

year ended 31 December 2011.<br />

The <strong>Maxis</strong> Group operates in a highly competitive and technology-based environment. The major risks to which the Group is exposed<br />

are strategic, operational, regulatory, financial, market, technological, products and reputational risks. These risks are proactively<br />

reviewed, monitored and managed by <strong>Maxis</strong> through the Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) process.<br />

<strong>Maxis</strong> Enterprise Risk Management adopts a structured and integrated approach in managing key business risks in line with the<br />

risk management framework and best practices. This framework is consistent with the Committee of Sponsoring Organisations<br />

(COSO) Enterprise Risk Management framework and involves the systematic identification and analysis of risks which impact the<br />

organisation’s objectives, formulation of response strategies and monitoring and reporting of the risk management progress on a<br />

regular basis. The implementation of the enterprise risk management framework ensures that major areas of risks are identified,<br />

managed and controlled or mitigated effectively.<br />

MAXIS’ ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK<br />

The ERM process is based on the following principles:<br />

• Consider and manage risks enterprise-wide;<br />

• Integrate risk management into business activities;<br />

• Manage risks in accordance with the Risk Management framework;<br />

• Tailor responses to business circumstances; and<br />

• Communicate risks and responses to Management.<br />

Risk management is firmly embedded within the business units through the annual strategic and budgeting processes. The business<br />

units, being the first line of defense against risks, are responsible for identifying, mitigating and managing risks within their<br />

respective areas. These units are to ensure that their day-to-day business activities are carried out within the established risk policies,<br />

procedures and limits.
