CCRO Corner

The Committee of Chief Risk Officers (CCRO) is a leading organization dedicated to enhancing risk management practices in the energy sector. It is an independent non-profit corporation of member companies, dedicated to the advancement of a broad range of best practices in the field of risk management for energy companies, and its many associated issues from finance, accounting, operations and audit. As a board member and Corporate Secretary, I'm involved in helping to guide discussions on energy transition, credit risk, and compliance.
