Project Risk Management
Risk ( the effect of uncertainty on objectives, whether positive or negative) the probability of unfortunate events . Risks can come from uncertainty in
financial markets, project failures, legal liabilities, credit risk, accidents, natural causes and disasters as well as deliberate attacks from an adversary.
Project finance is different from traditional forms of finance because the financier principally looks to the assets and revenue of the project in order to
secure and service the loan. In contrast to an ordinary borrowing situation, in a project financing the financier usually has little or no recourse to the
non–project assets of the borrower or the sponsors of the project. In this situation, the credit risk associated with the ... Show more content on

The financing is typically secured by all of the project assets. Project lenders are given a lien on these assets, and are able to assume control of a
project if the borrowers have difficulties complying with the loan terms.
Project financing discipline includes understanding the rationale for project financing, preparation of the financial plan, assessment of the risks,
designing the financing mix, and raising the funds. In addition, one must understand the cogent analyses of why some project financing plans have
succeeded while others have failed. A knowledge–base is required regarding the design of contractual arrangements to support project financing; issues
like the host of legislative provisions, government and administrative constrains, public and private infrastructure partnerships, public and private
financing structures; credit requirements of lenders, how to determine the project 's borrowing capacity; how to prepare cash flow projections and use
them to measure expected rates of return; tax and accounting considerations; and analytical techniques to validate the project 's feasibility.
Project finance is finance for a particular project, such as a mine, toll road, railway, pipeline, power station, hospital, which is repaid from the

Risk Management : An Organization
Risk management is "an organized effort to identify, assess, and reduce, where appropriate, risks to patients, visitors, staff, and organization assets"
(Kavaler, F., and Alexander, R. S. 2014). Institutions need to do ensure that their environment is safe. Risk management is one way to address actual
and/or potential risks identified in the organization. Risk management process focus on risk identification, risk assessment and risk control/management
(Kavaler, F., and Alexander, R. S. 2014). Each organization is unique and the challenges faced by each may differ. In health care settings, the safety and

Risk assessment involve patient assessment for risk of infection. The care provider seek for risk factors by performing physical examination, running
laboratory and radiologic investigation, review of patient data for contributing factors such as compromised mobility, low immunity among others.
Risk assessment; When a risk factor is identified, the care provider follows the required step as guided by a protocol. One of the action is to activate a
team evaluation of the patient vital signs, laboratory results such as white cell count, and patient assessment findings. The current protocol was
generated after a root cause analysis team's analysis, one of the common techniques in management of safety and security risk focusing on patient care
outcome and incorporated the centers for Disease Prevention and Control recommendation (CDC, 2016).
Risk control and treatment measures include implementing a CAUTI prevention bundles. This is a set of procedures and activities geared to reducing

Risks Management : Risk Management
Risk Management
All projects are subject to the effects of uncertainty. The uncertainty creates the need for organizations to be aware of the many different types of risk
they will be challenged with for the duration of the project. To understand the level of risk the organization must have a defined process for projectrisk
management to include their risk appetite, risk tolerance and risk thresholds. Project Risk Management is the processes of conducting risk management
planning, identification, analysis, response planning, and controlling risk on a project. (PMI, 2013, p. 555). The PMBOK Guide lists six processes of
Project Risk Management as "Plan Risk Management, Identify Risks, Perform Qualitative Risk Analysis, Perform Quantitative Risk Analysis, Plan
Risk Responses, and Control Risks" (PMI, 2013, p. 309). Risk management planning has been identified as an important management approach to
dealing with uncertainty in projects, aiming to minimize threats and increase opportunities. Understanding each of these processes will give you a clear
picture of the importance that risk management plays within a project.
Plan Risk Management
Plan Risk Management starts at the earliest stage of the project and should be included in the overall project management plan. Establishing this process

The Definition Of Risk Management
1. What is the NCPI definition of risk management?
The definition of risk management which is given by the NCPI is the expectancy, identification, and assessment of a possible risk where a process is
started to help take away any possible risks that can be associated with something or to help lower the amount of risk in which could be used to bring it
down to a place which is deemed to be at more of a tolerable level. What this is doing is showing us that as we place certain control over risks any
type of risk that is similar to these are then associated with each other. These risks are more easily controlled due to having them all in more of an
organized fashion leading to our efforts to combat these risks to become more effective. This then helps these risks from becoming increased or even
having other risks as a result. The whole notion of risk management is by acting on these risks before they become more serious we can prevent these
actions from happening ultimately widening our control over them.

Risk management is an activity which integrates recognition of risk, risk assessment, developing strategies to manage it, and mitigation of risk using
managerial resources. Some traditional risk managements are focused on risks stemming from physical or legal causes (e.g. natural disasters or fires,
accidents, death). Financial risk management, on the other hand, focuses on risks that can be managed using traded financial instruments. Objective of

As with the definition of risk, there are equally many accepted definitions of risk management in use. Some describe risk management as the

Identification and Assessment of Risk in Risk Management
Risk management is the process of taking actions to avoid or reduce risk to acceptable levels. This process includes both the identification and
assessment of risk through risk analysis and the initiation and monitoring of appropriate practices, in response to that analysis, through the agency's risk
management program. Risk assessment is a critical component of that process to ensure state agencies have an effective risk management plan in place.
Risk Management and Risk Assessment are major components of Information Security Management. Risk Assessment is part of the Risk Management
process. After initialization, Risk Management is a recurrent activity that deals with the analysis, planning, implementation, control and monitoring of
implemented measurements and the enforced security policy. On the contrary, Risk Assessment is executed at discrete time points (e.g. once a year, on
demand, etc.) and – until the performance of the next assessment – provides a temporary view of assessed risks and while parameter zings the entire
Risk Management process.
Financial institutions in particular must maintain an ongoing information security risk assessment program that effectively gathers data regarding the
information and technology assets of the organization, threats to those assets, vulnerabilities, existing security controls and processes, and the current
security standards and requirements, analyses the probability and impact associated with the known threats and

The Risks Of Risk Management
The ability to understand and quantify risk, is of the utmost importance. This is something that can be used to define the precise ways that risk should
have the ability to be managed, and the precise way that risk should be dealt with on a macro level. It is important to understand that risk management
is an excellent medium in which risk could be mitigated. This is an important variable that must be understood in this case, as there are many potential
risk areas that the firm must deal with. By taking on a macro integrated approach, the ability to understand with and better deal with risk will continue
to be present. The risk management plan must be based in reality, and have an understanding of the precise implications of what can go wrong. The
paradox in this case is based upon the precise issues that have arisen from a federal perspective. Although Marijuana is legal in the state of
Colorado, there are still federal mandates that create issues in terms of cash flow management (Carson, 2014). In this case the company Blue Dream
, is facing this horrid reality. This has created an environment that has increased multiple risk factors making the firm very reactive to the overall
external environmental needs. In order to mitigate and limit these specific risks, there needs to be a strategic focus on how risk could be anticipated
as well as dealt with. The creation of an effective risk management plan, can be used and applied to quantify the potential risks, and find ways

Risk Management Plan For A Risk Assessment
The goal of a risk assessment is to figure out all of the risks and vulnerabilities there are, or could possibly be within a business. The goal of a risk
management plan is to then figure out how to mitigate those risks and vulnerabilities to lessen the impact on the business if ever one should arise.
Creating a plan helps not only to identify any risks, but also helps to choose the best solutions available to mitigate those risks. If a risk management
plan is not created and implemented, there is greater chance of failure.
The purpose of this risk assessment plan is to update the existing out–of–date risk management plan. The scope of the plan will include:

Many insurance authors traditionally have defined risk in terms of uncertainty. We define risk as uncertainty concerning the occurrence of a loss.
(b) Objective risk is the relative variation of actual loss from expected loss. As the number of exposure units under observation increases, objective
risk declines. Subjective risk is uncertainty based on one's mental condition or state of mind. Accordingly, objective risk is measurable and statistical;
subjective risk is personal and not easily measured.
4 Rejda Principles of Risk Management and Insurance, Tenth Edition
2. (a) Chance of loss can be defined as the probability that an event will occur.
(b) Objective probability refers to the long–run relative frequency of an event based on the assumption of an infinite number of observations and no

Subjective probability is the individual's personal estimate of the chance of loss.

Foreign currency exchange risk is the additional riskiness or varience of a firm's cash flows that may be attributed to currency fluctuations (Giddy,
1977, Brigham and Ehrhardt, 2005). Normally, foreign currency risk exists in three forms; translation, transaction and economic exposures.
Foreign currency risk management involves taking decisions which aim at minimizing or eliminating the negative effects of currency fluctuations on

Using a unique set of data containing complete foreign currency spot and derivatives positions of Korean exporting firms, we empirically find that
currency position–squaring firms have significantly higher firm value. We also find evidence that these firms time the currency market when they
manage their currency cash position. Meanwhile, firms time the credit market when they determine the use of foreign currency debts. Strikingly, firms
still time the market even when they conduct derivatives hedging and synthetic hedging. Our findings are consistent with the market timing theory of
capital structure.
The second essay examines what determines banks‟ exposure to foreign currency risks, their management of these risks, and the relationship to the
probability of bank failures. Using a unique data set of Korean banks with detailed information on their foreign currency risk exposures and hedging
positions, we find that banks‟ foreign currency position mismatches, maturity mismatches, and debt roll–over risks are significantly attributed to
their dollar carry lending strategy, which is stimulated by market timing of corporate firms, short–maturity dollar borrowings, real estate market booms,
and dollar interest rate tightening. We also find that banks‟ foreign currency exposures significantly increase their financial distress likelihood

The Failure Of Risk Management
Hubbard is very contemptuous of much of the Risk Management practiced by organisations. Do you agree with his comments and suggested methods
of managing analysis of risks?
In The failure of risk management– why it's broken and how to fix Hubbard has put a very good argument regarding the failure of old risk management
techniques. Hubbard has tried to show how the risk management methodologies and techniques used currently by many organisation lack scientific and
mathematical approach towards risk management.
Hubbard has asked 3 basic questions in his book based on the several risk management methodologies
1.Do these risks management methods work?
2.Dose the organisation's using these methods know if these methods didn't work?
3.What are the consequences if they didn't work?
In my opinion Hubbard has put the very strong argument in his book, as many organisations have adopted risk management systems. But the problem
is, the systems are not backed up by measurable scientific results and often can actually make things worse. After reading the text I don't think that
Hubbard is being contemptuous of the risk management practices but he is trying to identifying new ways of better utilising these methods.
After reading the book we can see that Hubbard is a strong advocate of quantitative risk management techniques such as Monty Carlo simulation.

Research Proposal : Risk Management
Research proposal
Stephen Ebonine
Birkbeck College, University of London
Introduction
Risk Management is a relevant task in a management such as marketing, purchasing and finance. If we look at its functional aspect, we can easily
observe that is used by every country to direct the realisation of the economic objectives. The Oxford English dictionary defines risk as" possibility of
danger, loss, injury or other adverse consequences"
To give a technical definition of risk we have to subdivide it in different stages and examine all its different aspects. At the first stage the term risk was
only used to identify the threats in management and later extended to threats that could impact on the all organization. The "Australia/New Zealand
standard (1999)" defines risk as: the chance of something happening that will have a serious impact in the organization.
Summary
The recent economic negative events of 2008 and 2009 have significantly affected various organizations, so that's why the majority of them are trying

Risk Management Plan For A Company
Risk Management
The process that helps project managers follow when they need to calculate, identify, and manage risk in a company is defined as Risk Management.
When a company faces risk, risk management would be the ideal solution to use that to solve the known and unknown risks. Risk management plans
should be ready to help reduce and prevent those risks because most risks in a company are uncertain. When a company is facing risks that are
uncertain, these risks come up very fast and they could be potentially harmful. They should be treated right away. Of course the work must be
performed first as long as they are not of sever threat. Perform the work as planned keeping in mind those uncertain risks.

This can ensure that employees are focused on their jobs and not getting distracted. Another prevention method could be moving dangerous
equipment's to a different side of the factory where special safety precautions are implemented. Performing necessary maintenance on factory
equipment can also reduce the likelihood of an accident. (Larcker and Miller, 2014). Having regular safety meeting with employees can reduce
factory accidents. Managers have to be involved to make sure employees are safe at the workplace. These are some of the precautions we can take to
prevent the likelihood of a risk.
There are prevention methods available for companies to use, these are: risk management techniques which include risk avoidance, loss control, risk
retention, and risk transfer, risk mitigation plan, risk analysis, mitigation plan implementation, risk assessment table, and risk matrix.
Areas of Risk Management
There are many areas to focus on when it comes to risk management, depending on your company's infrastructure; risk management is going to be
different. The areas of risk management will include compliance risks, financial risks, operational risks, and strategic risks.
Compliance risks will involve industry standards and regulatory and statuary standards. Financial risks will include loss of revenues, exchange rate
losses, purchasing practices, performance and schedule, and lawsuits for facility injuries.

Further, privacy and security are like chronic diseases that require treatment, continuous monitoring and evaluation, and periodic adjustment.
According to HIPAA, the required implementation specification for risk analysis requires a covered entity to, "conduct an accurate and thorough
assessment of the potential risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of electronic protected health information held by
the covered entity."
The process of risk analysis consists of 9 steps:
Step 1. System Characterization:
Initially system characterization is required to accelerate the process of risk analysis. Through this process, the information that is needed to be
protected is identified. Some of the examples of applications include Electronic health records, Laboratory information system, and pharmacy system.
The general support systems consist of computers, laptops, smartphones, email, etc. which are used in the organization to support various applications.
The risk analysis should stress upon systems that have more effect on healthcare operations
Step 2. Threat Identification:
The next step is to identify threats. Threats can be of anything from earthquakes and tornadoes to human errors, carelessness, hacking, hardware failure,

Value At Risk And Risk Management
Value at Risk Framework or VAR framework is mainly used for financial risk management or financial mathematics in measuring the risk element on a
definite portfolio of financial assets, present in any economic organization. This particular portfolio comprises of time event and probability, which
states the threshold of the risk loss value over the period of time. These risk loss values are assumed to be according to the market to market pricing, no
trading and normal market which contributes in this risk valued portfolio. The risk management of Value at Riskis done by risk managers which are
responsible for measuring and controlling the risk levels that are present in an organization. Considering the modern portfolio theory, the third
constituent of portfolio is amount of investment which then creates a mean–variance framework risk. This framework risk is defined in terms of
possible variation in the expected portfolio which will describe the risk value loss in financial assets of an economic organization.
The Value at Risk framework and management help an organization in analyzing the risk loss in the financial resources, which increase its use in many
businesses, organizations and institutions. (Hassan, 2009) The organization use this VAR framework in analyzing the potential losses in many risk

Disadvantages Of Risk Management
Risk management can be defined as the process of discovering, identifying, and assessing the risks facing an organization's operations, as well as
determining how said risks can be either controlled or mitigated (Whitman & Mattord, 2013). Moreover, a significant component of risk management is
risk analysis, which is the identification and assessment of the various levels of risk in the organization. Due to this fact, risk management must remain
an ongoing process, and the safeguards and controls that are devised and implemented cannot be viewed as "install and forget" devices. Additionally,
this comprehensive process requires an organization to frame risk, assess risk, respond to risk once determined, and most importantly, monitor risk on
an ongoing basis through the use of active organizational communications and continuous improvement feedback loops. Furthermore, the fact that most
businesses identify and implement new information technology systems in response to changes in the market on a regular basis justifies the need for
an ongoing risk management process.
It is no longer enough to view risk management as a way to install tools and perform tasks in order to plug the holes in the organization's systems
(Schmerler, 2016). Effective risk management requires follow up and evaluation of the effectiveness of the risk management strategy on an ongoing
basis. Additionally, an organization will need to ensure that the authorized users are using the technology in the way

A Research On Enterprise Risk Management
Enterprise Risk Management
Introduction
The business environment is constantly changing; it is unpredictable, extremely volatile and complex. This makes businesses exposed to risk because
of the nature of the environment. It is therefore important for businesses to make strategic decisions on how to either reduce or make the effect of the
risk less severe as much as possible. Businesses have to identify and manage their risks to ensure their success and continuation. According to the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), "Uncertainties present both risks and opportunities, with potential to
erode or enhance value.i Risk management is an increasingly important business driver and stakeholders have become much more concerned about
risk. The 2008–2009 global financial crisis and the rapidly deteriorating global economy has created a context in which companies now face risks that
are more complex, more interconnected, and potentially more devastating than ever before. Failure to adequately acknowledge and effectively manage
risks associated with decisions being made throughout the organization can and often do lead to potentially catastrophic results.ii Risk may be a
driver of strategic decisions, it may be a cause of uncertainty in the organization or it may simply be embedded in the activities of the organization. A

prevalent in health care settings, which can be minimized and prevented by having well trained and educated risk management team within the
organization. Risk management is the systematic effort to reduce an incidence of preventable accidents, which not only prevents the injuries and
financial loss but also ensures that quality of services and quality of health care are in optimal level for all patients (Alexander& Kavaler, 2014). The
purpose of the risk management program is to investigate the potential risk factors before they threat to the patients, health care professionals and the
organization (Alexander& Kavaler, 2014). This paper will discuss about the elements of risk management program. Also, a paper will explain regarding

Because technology is consistently growing and changing, preventative measures must include flexibility to allow for change and growth. Without
these considerations, a business could jeopardize themselves by restricting the ability to expand or even update the systems with necessary security
patches. Preventative measures should include future growth. As technology grows, risks increase. Protection mechanisms will change as new threats
are introduced to business as well as new legislations. Many security standards are based on data protection regulations and as laws change or new laws
are introduced, information technology is the most costly element in ensuring compliance. There could be costly ramifications with poor planning.
Risk avoidance can be costly and inconvenient but it would be more costly and inconvenient when a security issue occurs. A risk assessment would be
the first step to take when determining whether to chance a certain risk or not. Determining what the assets are and understanding the impact on the
business if a security incident occurs is important. It is also important for businesses to understand regulations and what is necessary to comply with

It usually involves the hedging of contracts or of other explicit future commitments of the firm such as interest rate exposures on its debt issues.
Consider a U.S. dollar–based firm that buys steel from a Japanese firm for delivery in three months. The U.S. firm may decide to "tactically" hedge
the dollar price of its steel purchase. By using forward currency contracts, the firm locks–in the dollar cost of its steel purchase, offsetting the effect of
dollar–yen exchange rate movements that may occur before delivery and payment. The treasurer's office of the firm typically executes such tactical
currency hedging, which is generally undertaken in a non–integrated fashion without consideration of other hedging or insuring activities carried out in
the firm. This is so even when the risks across units are significantly correlated. In contrast, strategic currency hedging addresses the broader question of
how exchange rate fluctuations affect the value of the entire firm. It takes into account how those fluctuations affect the firm's competitive
environment, including the pricing of its products, the quantity sold, the costs of its inputs, and the response of other firms in the same industry.
Exchange rate risk is, of course, only one potential risk a firm faces. Managers using an integrated risk management approach must depart from the

Risk is the chance that the actual return from an investment may differ from what is expected. (Hickman, K. A., Byrd, J. W., & McPherson, M.
2013) Risk management discipline has evolved and expanded over the years and has shifted the focus from financial risks to a broader perspective
with strategic risks. (Bugalia, J., & Kallman, J. 2012) Risk management involves; organizing, planning, controlling, leading and allocating resources
and make decision for the organization for a success path. To achieve this component in running of a business, measures have been devised to identify
and analyzed the uncertainties associated. This paper discusses the techniques devised by Dr. James Kallman, in comparison to those of other risk
management experts.

Risk management is the identification, assessment, and prioritization of risks followed by coordinated and economical application of resources to
minimize, monitor, and control the probability and impact of unfortunate events or to maximize the realization of opportunities. Risk management's
objective is to assure uncertainty does not deflect the endeavor from the business goals. Risks can come from various sources: e.g., uncertainty in
financial markets, threats from project failures (at any phase in design, development, production, or sustainment life–cycles), legal liabilities, credit risk,
accidents, natural causes and disasters as well as deliberate attack from an adversary, or events of uncertain or unpredictable root–cause. The risk
management plan should propose applicable and effective security controls for managing the risks. A good risk management plan should contain a
schedule for control implementation and responsible persons for those actions.
It is important to assess and measure different types of risks that the company can face prior to stepping foot in a different country. The three broad

Risks And Risks Of Risk Management
Introduction
In this essay, I will be talking about Risk Management. What is Risk Management? Risk Management is identifying potential risks that could arise
whilst developing a software product and taking specific measures on how you could prevent these risks from occurring. Risks not only have an
impact on software product, but also have an impact on the overall project and the business organization, therefore it is important to know what a risk is
and how to minimize it. (Sommerville, 2010)
What is a risk? A risk is "uncertain events that are capable of affecting the achievement of project objectives" (Sommerville, 2010,p1) This shows
that risks are likely to occur at any time whether it brings a negative or positive impact. Mostly you would think of risks implying a negative
outcome to a business project or software product, however this is not always the case. Risks can also convey potential opportunities to a project
and product. For example, receiving high demands of new software product that's a positive risk. The various risks category out there are Project
risks, Product risks and Business risks which are all important as each other. A Project risk is a risk that has a huge impact on the objectives of the
project as well as how tasks are scheduled. An example of a Project risk would be having to make an employee redundant due to project budgets or

Accidents with tools
The engineers have to use tools to carry out maintenance work, tools include small pocket knives, screwdrivers, drills, ratchet sets etc. There is the
need of tools to do maintenance so the likelihood of incidents and accidents is very likely (Frequency: 4), severity is not as bad as there are a lack of
dangerous saws and other dangerous tools etc. Cuts from electrical/ metallic equipment are also likely as well but shouldn't be too severe (Severity: 3).
Trip/Slip Hazards
Trip hazards come from misplaced boxes, pallets and other items that have been misplaced. Slip hazards can come from a leaky roof or spilled drink,
these incidences can often occur (Frequency: 3) but they usually don't do too much damage but on rarity can be fatal (Severity: 2).
Oxidising Hazards
There are no real chemicals within the workplace that can cause oxidising problems or need constant ventilation, therefore any oxidising accidents
should be extremely rare (frequency: 1) but if they was a miraculous incident, it could cause an explosion (Severity: 5).
Environment Hazards
There is waste in the workshop that can be harmful to the environment, such as disposing old batteries that have Ni–Cad Acid which can harm the

The definition of risk management which is given by the NCPI is the expectancy, identification, and assessment of a possible risk where a process is started to help take away any possible risks that can be associated with something or to help lower the amount of risk in which could be used to bring it down to a place which is deemed to be at more of a tolerable level. What this is doing is showing us that as we place certain control over risks any type of risk that is similar to these are then associated with each other. These risks are more easily controlled due to having them all in more of an organized fashion leading to our efforts to combat these risks to become more effective. This then helps these risks from becoming increased or even having other risks as a result. The whole notion of risk management is by acting on these risks before they become more serious we can prevent these actions from happening ultimately widening our control over them. 2.

Foreign Exchange Risk Management REVIEW 1 The survey of foreign currency risk awareness and management practices in Tanzania REVIEW OF LITERATURE Foreign exchange risk management Foreign currency exchange risk is the additional riskiness or varience of a firm's cash flows that may be attributed to currency fluctuations (Giddy, 1977, Brigham and Ehrhardt, 2005). Normally, foreign currency risk exists in three forms; translation, transaction and economic exposures. Foreign currency risk management involves taking decisions which aim at minimizing or eliminating the negative effects of currency fluctuations on balance sheet and income statement values, a firm 's receipts and payments arising out of current transactions, and on long term future cash flows of a firm. ...

Using a unique set of data containing complete foreign currency spot and derivatives positions of Korean exporting firms, we empirically find that currency position–squaring firms have significantly higher firm value. We also find evidence that these firms time the currency market when they manage their currency cash position. Meanwhile, firms time the credit market when they determine the use of foreign currency debts. Strikingly, firms still time the market even when they conduct derivatives hedging and synthetic hedging. Our findings are consistent with the market timing theory of capital structure. The second essay examines what determines banks‟ exposure to foreign currency risks, their management of these risks, and the relationship to the probability of bank failures. Using a unique data set of Korean banks with detailed information on their foreign currency risk exposures and hedging positions, we find that banks‟ foreign currency position mismatches, maturity mismatches, and debt roll–over risks are significantly attributed to their dollar carry lending strategy, which is stimulated by market timing of corporate firms, short–maturity dollar borrowings, real estate market booms, and dollar interest rate tightening. We also find that banks‟ foreign currency exposures significantly increase their financial distress likelihood through dollar carry ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Do you agree with his comments and suggested methods of managing analysis of risks? In The failure of risk management– why it's broken and how to fix Hubbard has put a very good argument regarding the failure of old risk management techniques. Hubbard has tried to show how the risk management methodologies and techniques used currently by many organisation lack scientific and mathematical approach towards risk management. Hubbard has asked 3 basic questions in his book based on the several risk management methodologies 1.Do these risks management methods work? 2.Dose the organisation's using these methods know if these methods didn't work? 3.What are the consequences if they didn't work? In my opinion Hubbard has put the very strong argument in his book, as many organisations have adopted risk management systems. But the problem is, the systems are not backed up by measurable scientific results and often can actually make things worse. After reading the text I don't think that Hubbard is being contemptuous of the risk management practices but he is trying to identifying new ways of better utilising these methods. After reading the book we can see that Hubbard is a strong advocate of quantitative risk management techniques such as Monty Carlo simulation.

If we look at its functional aspect, we can easily observe that is used by every country to direct the realisation of the economic objectives. The Oxford English dictionary defines risk as" possibility of danger, loss, injury or other adverse consequences" To give a technical definition of risk we have to subdivide it in different stages and examine all its different aspects. At the first stage the term risk was only used to identify the threats in management and later extended to threats that could impact on the all organization. The "Australia/New Zealand standard (1999)" defines risk as: the chance of something happening that will have a serious impact in the organization. Summary The recent economic negative events of 2008 and 2009 have significantly affected various organizations, so that's why the majority of them are trying to introduce some relevant changes on their risk management practices and the management teams are asked to participate actively in risk assessment and risk management initiatives.

Disadvantages Of Risk Management Risk management can be defined as the process of discovering, identifying, and assessing the risks facing an organization's operations, as well as determining how said risks can be either controlled or mitigated (Whitman & Mattord, 2013). Moreover, a significant component of risk management is risk analysis, which is the identification and assessment of the various levels of risk in the organization. Due to this fact, risk management must remain an ongoing process, and the safeguards and controls that are devised and implemented cannot be viewed as "install and forget" devices. Additionally, this comprehensive process requires an organization to frame risk, assess risk, respond to risk once determined, and most importantly, monitor risk on an ongoing basis through the use of active organizational communications and continuous improvement feedback loops. Furthermore, the fact that most businesses identify and implement new information technology systems in response to changes in the market on a regular basis justifies the need for an ongoing risk management process. It is no longer enough to view risk management as a way to install tools and perform tasks in order to plug the holes in the organization's systems (Schmerler, 2016).

It usually involves the hedging of contracts or of other explicit future commitments of the firm such as interest rate exposures on its debt issues. Consider a U.S. dollar–based firm that buys steel from a Japanese firm for delivery in three months. The U.S. firm may decide to "tactically" hedge the dollar price of its steel purchase. By using forward currency contracts, the firm locks–in the dollar cost of its steel purchase, offsetting the effect of dollar–yen exchange rate movements that may occur before delivery and payment. The treasurer's office of the firm typically executes such tactical currency hedging, which is generally undertaken in a non–integrated fashion without consideration of other hedging or insuring activities carried out in the firm. This is so even when the risks across units are significantly correlated. In contrast, strategic currency hedging addresses the broader question of how exchange rate fluctuations affect the value of the entire firm. It takes into account how those fluctuations affect the firm's competitive environment, including the pricing of its products, the quantity sold, the costs of its inputs, and the response of other firms in the same industry.

Risks not only have an impact on software product, but also have an impact on the overall project and the business organization, therefore it is important to know what a risk is and how to minimize it.
