The determinants of the adoption of more or less advanced ERM systems are analyzed with particular reference to the role of corporate governance. The impacts of ERM systems on firm performance are also investigated, for instance in terms of cash holdings and internal information quality. Research relies on empirical quantitative methodologies based on both primary and secondary data. Risk Management
