example deficient knowledge applied situation knowledge risk materializes.relationship risk appears ineffective collaboration occurs.processengagement risk may issue ineffective operational procedures applied.risks directly reduce productivity knowledge workers decrease costeffectiveness profitability service quality reputation brand value earnings quality.intangible risk management allows risk management create immediate value identification reduction risks reduce productivity.opportunity cost represents unique challenge risk managers.

risks events triggered cause problems benefits.hence risk identification start source problems competitors benefit problems consequences.source analysis – risk sources may internal external system target risk management use mitigation instead management since definition risk deals factors decisionmaking cannot managed.some examples risk sources stakeholders project employees company weather airport.problem analysis – risks related identified threats.example threat losing money threat abuse confidential information threat human errors accidents casualties.threats may exist various entities important shareholders customers legislative bodies government.when either source problem known events source may trigger events lead problem investigated.example stakeholders withdrawing project may endanger funding project confidential information may stolen employees even within closed network lightning striking aircraft takeoff may make people board immediate casualties.the chosen method identifying risks may depend culture industry practice compliance.

alternatively one start threats examine resources would affect one begin consequences determine combination threats resources would involved bring about.assessment risks identified must assessed potential severity impact generally negative impact damage loss probability occurrence.quantities either simple measure case value lost building impossible know sure case unlikely event probability occurrence unknown.therefore assessment process critical make best educated decisions order properly prioritize implementation risk management plan.even shortterm positive improvement longterm negative impacts.take turnpike example.

highway widened allow traffic.traffic capacity leads greater development areas surrounding improved traffic capacity.time traffic thereby increases fill available capacity.turnpikes thereby need expanded seemingly endless cycles.many engineering examples expanded capacity function soon filled increased demand.

since expansion comes cost resulting growth could become unsustainable without forecasting management.the fundamental difficulty risk assessment determining rate occurrence since statistical information available kinds past incidents particularly scanty case catastrophic events simply infrequency.furthermore evaluating severity consequences impact often quite difficult intangible assets.asset valuation another question needs addressed.thus best educated opinions available statistics primary sources information.nevertheless risk assessment produce information senior executives organization primary risks easy understand risk management decisions may prioritized within overall company goals.

thus several theories attempts quantify risks.numerous different risk formulae exist perhaps widely accepted formula risk quantification rate probability occurrence multiplied impact event equals risk magnitude.risk options risk mitigation measures usually formulated according one following major risk options aredesign new business process adequate builtin risk control containment measures start.periodically reassess risks accepted ongoing processes normal feature business operations modify mitigation measures.transfer risks external agency e.g.insurance companyavoid risks altogether e.g.closing particular highrisk business arealater research shown financial benefits risk management less dependent formula used dependent frequency risk assessment performed.in business imperative able present findings risk assessments financial market schedule terms.

avoidance may seem like answer risks avoiding risks also means losing potential gain accepting retaining risk may allowed.entering business avoid risk loss also avoids possibility earning profits.increasing risk regulation hospitals led avoidance treating higher risk conditions favor patients presenting lower risk.risk reduction risk reduction optimization involves reducing severity loss likelihood loss occurring.example sprinklers designed put fire reduce risk loss fire.

however technically speaking buyer contract generally retains legal responsibility losses transferred meaning insurance may described accurately postevent compensatory mechanism.example personal injuries insurance policy transfer risk car accident insurance company.risk still lies policyholder namely person accident.insurance policy simply provides accident event occurs involving policyholder compensation may payable policyholder commensurate sufferingdamage.methods managing risk fall multiple categories.riskretention pools technically retaining risk group spreading whole group involves transfer among individual members group.
