SK CONTROL EFFECTIVENESS GUIDE
Guide
Nothing more to be done except review and monitor the existing controls.
Controls are well designed for the risk, are largely preventive and address
the root causes. Management believes that they are effective and reliable
at all times. Reactive controls only support preventive controls.
Most controls are designed correctly and are in place and effective. Some
more work to be done to improve operating effectiveness or management
has doubts about operational effectiveness and reliability of the controls.
While the design of controls may be largely correct in that they treat most
of the root causes of the risk, they are not currently operationally very
effective. There may be an over-reliance on reactive controls, or some of
the controls do not seem correctly designed in that they do not treat root
Virtually no credible control. Management has no confidence that any
degree of control is being achieved.
