Your vendors may be unable to deliver supplies and customers unable to pay invoices. Failures of public and private infrastructure systems-such as power, water, and transportation-could cause major operational disruptions. If you suffer Y2K financial losses, you may need to seek compensation from responsible parties. Or if you are unable to meet contractual, fiduciary, or regulatory obligations as a result of Year 2000 problems, you may face litigation. This indispensable guide reveals the legal landscape unique to Y2K and covers such vital topics as: * Business and legal risk assessment * Identifying and safeguarding mission-critical business functions * Fast-tracking a Y2K project * Evaluating and protecting the supply chain * Developing contingency plans and fall-back procedures * Preparing a legal audit and reducing liability exposure * Substantiating due diligence of Y2K compliance efforts * Implications of the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act, SEC disclosure rules, and independent auditing guidelines * Insurance coverage issues * Exercising fiduciary duties and protecting corporate officers and information technology professionals * Litigation planning and alternative dispute resolution

Download or read book Public Sector Risk Management written by Martin Fone and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The management of risk is a fundamental purpose of government. Whether risks arise from the physical environment, the economic environment, or even from changes in voter preferences, public institutions have a broad responsibility to assess and address the risks that impact the community they serve and their organisation. Public bodies are operating in a dynamic environment. The imposition of a Best Value regime is forcing them not only to perform more efficiently, effectively and responsively but also to develop best practices and benchmarking criteria to demonstrate their performance. At the same time, the ever-increasing delegation of responsibilities from central government and the European Union has widened their exposure to risk. Public institutions are now encouraged to partner with the private sector and outsource some of their traditionally retained services, generating agency and delegation exposures. In such an environment, controlling the cost of risk has become a real priority. But risk management is not just about preventing losses and reducing costs. Increasingly, risk management is defined as the co-ordinated management of all risks. This definition serves to encompass risk-taking where it serves to meet overall organisational objectives. This broader view of risk management, known as 'organisation risk management,' asserts that risk management is a general management function that permeates an organisation, is linked to the organisation's overall strategic plan, and serves to enable the operational achievement of organisational goals and objectives. Under this frame of reference, risk management is not something a risk management department practices on a public body; but rather an organisational value that informs and supports all managers' and employees' duties and activities. Risk management is a central purpose of public institutions. 'Public Sector Risk Management' addresses the major challenges facing public bodies today and provides the basic tools necessary for implementing a risk management programme. It introduces the subject of risk management through the development of a framework known as 'Organisation Risk Management' (ORM), which establishes the premise of risk management as an organisation-wide endeavour. Readers will learn of the governing concepts and principles of ORM in the public sector, but will also see how those concepts and principles translate into practice. Various ready-to-use tools and techniques are provided, which will enable readers to translate information into immediate use within their organisations. 'Public Sector Risk Management' is ideal for practising risk managers, senior managers, and elected members desiring an accessible, but thorough, introduction to the subject . Provides a comprehensive framework for the management of Public Sector Risk Management Endorsed by The Institute of Risk Management (IRM) and by The Association of Local Authority Risk Managers (ALARM) on their public risk management programs

Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2008 in the subject Hotel Industry / Catering, grade: B, University of Derby, 41 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: No one can be sure of what the future will bring; therefore decisions on future events or incidences create risk and uncertainty. Technically, uncertainty is a situation where there are a variety of possible outcomes and little, if anything, is previously known to guide a well-rounded decision. (Garlick 2007) Risk is a situation where there are a variety of possible outcomes and all of the possibilities are known before and final decisions are taken. The higher the variability of these possible outcomes, the greater is the risk. Risk has been gaining a lot of attention in recent years. Until recently, it has always been viewed in a negative light, as something to avoid, as a danger. Risk management embraces risk as being inherent to business and providing the opportunity to maximise wealth. (Knowles et al. 2004) King (2000) argues that risk traditionally been defined in terms of the possibility of danger, loss, injury or other adverse consequences because for positive events we tend to use the words 'chance' or 'possibility'. The Risk Management Standard defined risk as the combination of the probability of an event and its consequences, and risk management is being concerned with both positive and negative aspects of risk. (Institute of Risk Management 2002 quoted in Collier et al. 2007, p. 6) Over the last few decades, dealing with risk has become a distinctive and important area of management. It is already sees as an essential part of any successful organisation. (King 2000, Jablonski 2006, Lofstedt 2005) Sometimes, especially in business, certain risk can be an opportunity - for example making an investment in the stock market, floating shares or buying a new business. (Jeynes 2002) That is why it is important to do further research in order to avoid crises and point out opportunities especially in the
