Advisory and accounting firm Richey May has continued the expansion of its consulting practice, launching enterprise-level Governance, Risk and Compliance and Integrated Risk Management Solutions, under the direction of an industry veteran, Kevin Berman. By 2025, 50% of global midmarket and large enterprises will depend on risk management solutions to aggregate digital risks in their business ecosystems, up from 10% in 2018.

In response to this critical need, Kevin Berman, recognized as a digital integrated eGRC thought leader, has joined Richey May to lead this practice. Richey May’s financial acumen now expands into a robust Three Lines of Defense model, specifically targeted to heavily regulated industries.
