We lead the profession by setting high competency standards, guiding industry regulations and upholding the highest ethical practices. We unify risk professionals through a shared commitment to excellence, encouraging collaboration, the exchange of insights and learning from one another.

Our vision is to strengthen and nurture a vibrant community of risk professionals, shaping careers across the many disciplines risk touches. Guided by the experience of our leadership and extensive network, we support professionals at every stage of their journey.

RMIA members are trusted advisors, strategic thinkers and recognised leaders who apply risk to drive resilience across industries. We create a space where professionals from every sector and career level connect, learn and grow through our Annual Conference, Risk Odyssey events, Best Practice Guides, Special Interest Groups, Chapter networking and a full range of education programs.
