Common Goals for an RMA:

Compliance – Reacting to externally imposed corporate governance guidelines that concern risk identification, disclosure, management, and monitoring.
Defense – Anticipating problems before they threaten the company‘s strategic objectives. This is largely avoiding unknown issues that could undermine company progress.
Coordination/Integration – Breaking down internal silos by coordinating various pockets of risk management activity and awareness to improve overall company performance.
Exploiting Opportunities and Creating Value – Appreciating how risks interact across the enterprise and exploiting natural ways to avoid or manage those risks.
