    About this ebook

    Risk analysis is a process which helps the management to find
    the balance between achieving business objectives and the
    requirement to protect the assets of the business. It provides a
    way to optimize operations, leading to an equilibrium of
    profitability and risk. As external scrutiny increase and
    stakeholders have begun to question management decisions due
    to rising scandals and bankruptcy, risk analysis has become a
    potent tool to pacify them. It demonstrates management's ability
    to carry out due diligence and exhibits that they are meeting
    their fiduciary duty and protecting shareholders wealth. Thus it
    plays a pivotal role in management's decision making and is
    crucial for strategic planning and implementation. Risk analysis
    has become an important part of the corporate world
    nowadays and to survive businesses need to know how to
    implement it!

      Summary

      Risk analysis begins with an understanding of the risk that the business face. The business needs to understand, what classifies as risk and what the risks they face as an organization are.
