Why risk and strategy belong together

Most businesses treat risk and strategy as two separate things. Risk sits in its own lane with reports, frameworks, subject matter expertise. Strategy sits somewhere else entirely.

That disconnect costs businesses more than they realise. It limits growth, causes rework, creates operational drag and means leadership teams make decisions without the full picture.

Good risk management isn’t red tape. It’s the foundation that lets you grow with confidence; faster, smarter and with fewer surprises. The businesses that understand this don’t just manage risk better, they perform better.

That’s the difference Halo Risk is here to make.

Halo Risk helps businesses build the governance and risk foundations they need to scale with confidence, meet rising regulatory expectations and protect what they’ve built.

What Makes Halo Risk Different

Halo Risk works with businesses of all sizes, from ambitious start-ups and growing SMEs to established, complex organisations.
Adviser and practitioner

I’ve advised Global businesses at EY and led governance and risk inside industry. So the advice is built around how businesses actually work, not how they should work in theory.

Risk and strategy, linked

Halo doesn’t treat risk as a standalone function. Everything is connected to your commercial goals, because risk management that isn’t aligned to strategy just creates drag.

Advice you can act on

You'll get the honest view, not the polished one. I'll tell you what I see, ask the right questions and give you the confidence to act at Board level and across the business.

How Halo Risk Works - Five Step Process

Every engagement starts with your business – your goals, your ambitions, your current position and everything that follows is built around that.

Most engagements follow some or all of five steps and the starting point depends on where you are. Whether you need the full end-to-end or targeted support at a single stage, the approach is tailored to where you are and where you need to get to.

Discovery: I learn your goals, your challenges and your current position. No assumptions, no templates, just a thorough understanding of your business.

Gap analysis: I identify what’s missing, what’s working and what needs refinement. Honest, evidence based and prioritised.

Strategy: We co-create a roadmap and action plan built around your specific needs and growth ambitions.

Execution: I support implementation, working alongside your team to bring the plan to life with confidence.

Evolution: As your business grows and the regulatory landscape shifts, I stay with you. An ongoing partner, not a one-time project.

About Kat Rae

22 years. Both sides of the table

I’ve worked at EY advising Global businesses and in industry, including senior leadership at a FTSE 100 wealth manager. I’ve seen how risk works from both sides and that changes how the advice lands.

I started Halo Risk to work directly with businesses, with no layers in between and to bring a quality of thinking and challenge that most businesses can’t access without a large consultancy fee.

Where engagements require additional specialist support, I work with a small number of trusted associates.
