4. Company’s risk tolerance level
The Inditex Group relies on standard criteria to identify, assess and prioritize risks, based upon the concept of risk tolerance as key tool.
It is incumbent on senior managers to establish strategy and risk tolerance, which must reflect the risk volume that the company is willing to assume to reasonably attain the goals and interests of the Group. Such tolerance is regularly updated, at least every time the Group strategy changes.
Once the risks tolerance for strategic and business goals of the Group has been defined, it is duly disclosed to the Corporate Enterprise Risks Manager, who determines the assessment scales of key business risks (impact, likelihood and readiness level).
