Third parties can bring a host of risks to corporations, and due diligence alone is not enough to prevent the most dangerous of those risks from striking your organization. This paper will explore the importance of effective internal controls to govern third parties and those risks they can pose to you. Specifically, it will address:
Recent examples of third-party risk failures (reputation, cybersecurity, and corruption), and how internal controls failed to prevent those lapses;
A modern definition of internal control that compliance officers can use to frame the processes they want to implement around third parties; and
Three specific compliance capabilities that will become more important as third parties proliferate in your extended enterprise.
