Summary
While the Dodd-Frank Act may enhance a board’s risk management oversight capabilities, significant concerns persist regarding reliance on board committees. Organizational literature suggests that cognitive biases and structural limitations that influence group decision making will continue to plague boards’ efforts to effectively manage risk. This Article argues that better-tailored reforms are necessary to address weaknesses in enterprise risk management regulation and to reduce the threat of systemic risk.
