The absence of good and systematic governance may cause damage to the business in terms of both financial impact and reputation. Therefore, OR has set a management structure that covers all three aspects of GRC and has adjusted its operational approaches to align with the changing business environment. This enhances organizational flexibility and readiness to adapt to change, while building confidence among all stakeholder groups.
