Our Mission

We believe that transparency helps reduce risks. The open source operating model has been proven across many domains as a great enabler of digitization and multiplier of capability. Open source approaches are also uniquely suited as blueprint for the next generation of risk management tools and models.

Since our establishment in 2014 we adopted as our permanent byline the Open Future for Risk Management. We believe that sustainable businesses, especially in the financial sector can do worse than embrace the quality and trust that accrues from openness and transparency.

The Open Risk Mission follows naturally from the vision of openness, transparency and open source modality. Our aim is to help build improved, next-generation risk management tools, with concrete initiatives and projects.

Fundamentally we aim to bridge the information technology gaps faced by many businesses and individuals across the world when it comes to making best use of risk management concepts and tools. Our objective is to do this in the most affordable way, by supporting open source, peer reviewable methodologies and risk models. We accomplish that with the effective use, promotion and production of open source and open data and the adoption and promotion of public risk management and sustainability standards.
