Ep 227: Risk Management and The Three Lines of Defense w/ Grant Thornton's Risk and Advisory Team

This week's episode, we're joined by the Grant Thornton risk and advisory team—Andres Castañeda, Jaynitsa Paul, and EJ Jimenez.

In this episode, they explain their article Risk Management: Get Your Three Lines in Order in simple terms. They clear up common misunderstandings about the first, second, and third lines of defense in risk management. They also give real examples of when the system works well and when it fails—and why that matters.

Check out their article, and connect with Andres, Jaynitsa, and EJ on LinkedIn.
