During the summer of 2020, an update was presented on one of the most central and well-established models in the area of GRC: the concept of governance and organization in accordance with the Three Lines of Defense (3LOD). An international working group composed of various experts spent a long time in consideration and decided ultimately that it was time to update and refresh the model. The concept itself does not of course cease to exist, but as a start we now have to get used to a new name: the “Three Lines Model”. We will briefly explain why a change was considered necessary and the differences the new model will bring to the GRC table.
