Risk Management System and Structure

  • Compal adopts a management system for finances, business and accounting pursuant to the FSC's Regulations Governing the Establishment of Internal Control Systems by Public Companies; and evaluates and monitors risk in operating activities. Managerial personnel ensure that any such risk is within an acceptable range by drawing up a risk management plan and response guidelines.

2024 Risk identification and corresponding strategy

Compal performed Identification, Analysis and Evaluation based on the ISO 31000 framework and methodology, and determined 24 risk issues in five areas: Strategy, Finance, Operations, Regulatory Compliance, and the Environment. Considering the Company's resources, these issues were then prioritized in a risk matrix.

Following an analysis of the matrix, we determined specific risks for the three main risks based on the internal and external environment and drafted the  strategy:

New & Emerging Risk

Cyber Security

ISO 27001Information Security Policy
To achieve the information security strategy of "ensuring business continuity and enhancing customer satisfaction," Compal has implemented an information security management system. This includes formulating roles and responsibilities for information security, ensuring full participation from all employees and contractors. We identify information assets, conduct information security risk assessments, comply with laws and regulations, meet customer security requirements, and carefully evaluate overall information security risk items and acceptance criteria.
In response to the evolving digital environment and ever-changing new technologies, we strengthen digital resilience and implement information security controls with a proactive defense mindset. This includes identification, protection, detection, response, and recovery, aimed at maintaining the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of critical information assets. Through management reviews and performance evaluations, we continuously improve and maintain the effectiveness of the information security management system. Our goal is to gain customer trust, fulfill commitments to shareholders, and achieve sustainable business operations.
