Lack of human capacity required in risk management is one of the major challenges of the Nigerian and global business environment. This has led to the collapse of several corporate organizations, manufacturing industries and government institutions owning to ineffective risk identification, valuation and control measures.

The Executive Master of Risk Management programme provides the platform to acquire in-depth knowledge and technical skills needed to manage enterprise risks of corporate organizations and government institutions. The programme also provide opportunities for capacity building (of graduates from various fields) in risk identification, modelling, financing and management as it applies to all sectors of the economy.

The University of Lagos is the leading risk management training institution in Nigeria as indicated by the leadership position its graduates occupy in the industry today. To consolidate this lead and to create avenues for professionals and practitioners from different backgrounds to acquire the needed technical knowledge and skills in enterprise risk management, the executive MRM programme is highly required.
