new Rivera: A stricter regulatory environment and rising stakeholder expectations are undoubtedly driving companies’ need for a CTrO. With increasing regulations around data privacy, cyber security and ethical technology use, organisations are realising the importance of building trust with their stakeholders by complying with regulations and avoiding reputational damage. Businesses are also recognising that building trust and implementing ethical practices are now core to their broader strategy. The CTrO is becoming an essential player in shaping these strategies, as they are responsible for creating and implementing trust frameworks that align with the organisation’s broader goals and values. And CTrOs are also working more closely than ever with other executives, including the chief information officer (CIO) and chief information security officer (CISO), to ensure that digital systems and processes are secure and trustworthy. They are collaborating across departments to promote a culture of trust and transparency within the organisation. A CTrO can help a business develop trust-centred policies aligned with company and employee values. Companies that view compliance initiatives like privacy, governance risk and compliance (GRC), ethics, and environmental social and governance (ESG) programmes as compliance outcomes that build trust will gain a competitive edge and support a healthy, thriving employee base. In our view, every interaction with a business represents an opportunity to build or lose a customer’s trust. Companies should focus on the aspects of customer trust that can be controlled, such as privacy, transparency and ethical decision making, and ensure control of what is outside of outside threats, such as third-party breaches, regulatory change and market shifts. A consistent, systemic approach to trust is a competitive advantage that is difficult to copy. As technology and data continues to evolve, investing in CTrO and digital trust solutions will become even more critical for organisations to succeed in the long term. CTrO’s will be well-positioned to help their organisations combine their values and business priorities with effective programmes for operationalising, driving and maintaining trust. — Financier Worldwide, 2d ago
