Corporate Governance

Risk management

Alligo’s operations involve regularly managing strategic, operational, and financial risks while identifying opportunities. Our risk management aims to prevent and mitigate these risks a way that creates value.

Our Risk management process

The work of identifying and assessing the most significant risks is an integral part of our strategic and operational planning at all levels within the organization.

Process and risk owners in various parts of the business identify and assess both existing and new potential risks in collaboration with the group management, which conducts an overall analysis of risks and opportunities for the entire business.

The risk management process is continuously developed, and measures are taken to prevent and minimize risks in all major risk areas. Each risk is assessed based on probability and impact.
