Risk Management Fundamentals
Risk management for corporations
Attempts to manage those risks that entail the possibility of
economic harm
A reduction in the value of existing wealth
An increase in future expenditures
A reduction in future income
An increase in the discount rate
The firm should identify all opportunities and threats,
quantify and prioritize them, and find means to manage
them collectively and effectively to enhance firm value.
It should be indifferent whether a risk is financial, operational or
strategic.
6
ERM Goals
ERM deals with all risks critical to the maintenance and
enhancement of firm value.
The risk manager should be indifferent whether a risk is financial,
operational or strategic.
A firm can alter its risk portfolio in three ways:
Modify its operations
Adjust its capital structure
Employ targeted financial instruments
7
ERM Goals
The Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission (COSO)
An effective ERM approach should be oriented toward several sub-
goals:
Ensure that the firms risk appetite is aligned with its overall strategy;
Enhance risk response decisions
Reduce operational surprises and losses
Identify and act on (new) business opportunities from successfully
managing risks
Allow management effectively to assess the firms capital needs and
improve capital allocation

Environmental Analysis Internal
Operational risks
Earnings can be affected by a host of risks.
Assets can be damaged, destroyed and stolen, and some become
obsolete over time.
Employee-related risks such as injury or death, resignation
(including being fired), strike or being the object of kidnappings and
ransom.
Legal liability is a major concern for businesses in several countries.

Political risks are especially relevant for MNCs.

Environmental Analysis Internal
Financial risks
Currency or foreign exchange rate risk
Interest rate risk
Input price risk
Output price risk
Credit (counterparty) risk
16
Environmental Analysis External
Threats and opportunities external to the organization fall
into the strategic risk category.
Strategic risks stemming from macroeconomic and other primarily
external influences and trends
Strategic risks usually being the responsibility at the highest levels of
the organization
Case
What seems to be purely an operational risk issue can escalate into
a disastrous reputational problem

Quantitative risks
Net present value (NPV) and internal rate of return (IRR) analyses

Risk Mapping
Upon completion of the analysis process, the firm should be
able to quantify all risks identified objectively or subjectively
and then ranks the risks in the order of priority
Two approaches
The IRM-AIRMIC-ALARM approach (Table 12.2)

Plan Administration
An international RM program follows the same process as
managing purely domestic risks.
Businesses can alter their risk profiles by:
Changing operations
Altering their capital structure, and
Using targeted financial instruments
The techniques for addressing operational risks generally
are universal in concept but differ substantially in their
application internationally.
28
Plan Administration
Using a multinational program as an example
29
Plan Administration Decentralized Program
Relies heavily on local operations/foreign subsidiaries to
make their own risk management decisions
Benefits
Local office accountability enhanced
Local management show a strong interest in managing risk
Local operations/subsidiaries establish strong ties with local
governments and communities.
Insurance contracts issued in compliance with local regulations
Concerns
The MNC exercises little control over local RM activities
Lack of coordination between the corporate and local offices, thus
thwarting ERM efforts.
30
Plan Administration Centralized Program
The corporate office exerts primary control over the risk
management activities of remote operations and subsidiaries.
Benefits
Uniform approaches to risk, allowing stronger coordination
internationally and consistency with the ERM approach
Target financial instruments, such as insurance, being more consistent
Concerns
Conflict between corporate and local offices over local autonomy
Cost-of-risk allocations among subsidiaries
The corporate office may fail to respond on a timely basis to changes in
local conditions

Discussion Questions
33
Discussion Question 1
Find a definition of risk management from a reliable source
and compare it with the definition of ERM in this book.
34
Discussion Question 2
Why is it important to have an effective communication
channel involving (the most) senior management in ERM?
35
Discussion Question 3
What similarities and differences can you find from the three
risk management standards discussed in this book the
COSO framework, Australian/New Zealand standard, and
the U.K. risk management standards?
36
Discussion Question 4
Other than the risks discussed in this book, identify and
discuss one risk that firms can easily quantify and another
that cannot be objectively quantified.
37
Discussion Question 5
Identify a representative MNC in your home country:
Classify its risks into financial, operational, and strategic.
Which risks, in your view, could cause (i) a significant reduction in
the value of the existing wealth of the firm, (ii) an increase in future
expenditures, and (iii) a reduction in future income?
Attempt to create a risk map using the identified risks.
38
Discussion Question 6
If the MNC that you identified has a risk management
program, find out whether it is an ERM program? If not,
what should the MNC do to have a true ERM program?
39
Discussion Question 7
The degree to which international risk management
programs are centralized or decentralized increasingly will
be patterned after the basic organizational structure and
operating philosophy of the firm, rather than by external
constraints. What are the external constraints?
