Download or read book Enterprise Risk Management 2nd Edition written by David L Olson and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 2015-01-21 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Risk is inherent in business. Without risk, there would be no motivation to conduct business. But a key principle is that organizations should accept risks that they are competent enough to deal with, and “outsource” other risks to those who are more competent to deal with them (such as insurance companies). Enterprise Risk Management (2nd Edition) approaches enterprise risk management from the perspectives of accounting, supply chains, and disaster management, in addition to the core perspective of finance. While the first edition included the perspective of information systems, the second edition views this as part of supply chain management or else focused on technological specifics. It discusses analytical tools available to assess risk, such as balanced scorecards, risk matrices, multiple criteria analysis, simulation, data envelopment analysis, and financial risk measures.

In the new book, Surviving and Thriving in Uncertainty: Creating the Risk Intelligent Enterprise, authors Rick Funston and Steve Wagner suggest that effective risk taking is needed in order to innovate, stay competitive, and drive value creation.

Anticipating potential causes of failure can improve chances of survival and success through improved preparedness. Factoring in velocity and momentum can improve speed of response and recovery.

Download or read book Corporate Risk Management written by Erik M. Vermeulen and published by Thesis Pub. This book was released on 1994 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firms do not operate in a vacuum. They are continually confronted with a variety of external risk factors influencing their performance. As a consequence corporate risk management is called for. This book presents a new approach to corporate risk management. The approach is based on the multi-factor method, which serves to analyze the systematic risks encountered by the firm, such as those caused by the business cycle, the wage rate and the interest rate. The book concentrates on four questions: How to describe the firms' risks? How to measure these risks? How to evaluate the firm given the risks encountered? How to change these risks? These questions are theoretically answered and empirically illustrated in the book. The empirical research ranges from an analysis of the risks of individual bakeries to an examination of the sensitivities of Dutch manufacturing industries.
