The FOES Framework is a model used to identify and categorize risks within an organization. It stands for Financial Risk, Operational Risk, External Risk, and Systemic Risk. Financial Risk involves financial transactions and the financial health of the organization. Operational Risk involves the day-to-day operations of the organization. External Risk involves factors outside the organization that could impact its operations or profitability. Systemic Risk involves risks that could affect the entire system within which the organization operates. This framework is used by organizations to identify potential risks and develop strategies to mitigate them.
