Indra Group renews its ISO 31000 risk management certification and extends its scope to the Space business

For the sixth year in a row, Indra Group has renewed the ISO 31000 certification awarded by AENOR, which acknowledges its compliance with the risk management culture and its keenness to adopt the best corporate governance practices, including the financial and sustainability risk management related to its environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance.

The ISO 31000 certification demonstrates the robustness and effectiveness of Indra Group’s Risk Control and Management System, which complies with the principles, processes, and best practices in this area, effectively integrating risk management into the group’s activities and, one year after its launch, continuing to be fully aligned with the company’s strategy, as set out in its Leading the Future plan.

Accordingly, this year, for the first time, the Space business has been included in the business lines covered by the scope of the certification following the creation of Indra Space. This inclusion reflects the expansion and diversification of the company’s operations, as well as its commitment to comprehensive risk management across all of its business areas.

As strengths, the audit team highlighted the more strategic approach to the risk management in relation to the mergers and acquisitions (M&A) process, and the management of the Defence business risks within the current context, characterized by the growth of the sector. This approach has enabled Indra Group to anticipate and effectively manage the risks associated with this business.

One particularly significant aspect with respect to the previous audit is the evolution of the group’s risk appetite framework, which defines the level of risk an organization is willing to accept in order to fulfill its strategic goals. This framework acts as a clear and structured guide to corporate decision-making and risk management. It also reinforces alignment with the best practices recommended by the CNMV, as set out in the Technical Guide on Audit Committees of Public-Interest Entities.
