A recent survey from Compliance Week and Riskonnect of 261 compliance and audit professionals found that half of the respondents were not prepared for the coronavirus pandemic with an updated crisis management plan.

While COVID-19 impacted many firms’ governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) data management processes, just 41 percent said they had an up-to-date crisis response plan in place, and the remaining 9 percent were uncertain.
