11. Assess Value Chain Financial Risks

What is this step?

Use the EXO.G Risk Management area to quantify the financial impact of each value chain IRO, prioritize mitigation, and keep auditors/investors confident that risks are under control.

How you do it

  1. Go to Risk Management → IROs and filter by Value chain segment (upstream, own operations, downstream).
  2. Open each high-impact IRO and:
    • Rate Likelihood and Magnitude (1–5) plus Time horizon.
    • Review the auto-calculated Risk score and heatmap placement.
    • Link affected stakeholders, policies, and PAT actions.
  3. Switch to the Policies and Targets tab and add or update action plans (owner, due date, budget, KPIs).
  4. Generate a masterplan from insights if you need AI to summarize mitigation steps.
  5. Track status (To do → In progress → Completed) so you can prove risk follow-up during assurance.

Why it matters

  • Shows exactly how ESG factors translate into financial exposure along the value chain.
  • Keeps mitigation aligned with PAT, so risks and actions stay in sync.
  • Provides ready-to-use evidence for CSRD/TCFD risk disclosure sections.

Main outputs

  • Updated risk register with scores, heatmap positions, and mitigation status for every material value chain IRO.
  • Masterplan or action plan exports you can attach to board packs, investor decks, or audits.
