Chapter 12
• Risk management:
- The world of business does not offer a lot of guarantees that specific outcomes will be achieved,
because there is a high degree of uncertainty linked to:


➢ The economy of the country.
➢ The economy on a global level.
➢ Political development.
➢ Technological advancements.
➢ Changes in legislation.
➢ Changes in consumers demands.


- Taking risks is a natural part of any business venture, the manager or entrepreneur should be aware
and actively plan for the variety of risks that exists as part of the everyday business operation.
- Risk management: defied as analyzing the probability of an event – taking place and then proactive
planning to minimize the possible negative impact of the event on the business.

➢ Risk can thus be seen in a number of ways:
• Risk as a mere uncertainty.
• Risk as a threat.
• Risk as an opportunity.




Risk and strategic management:
• Strategic planning: refers to the formulating of the business’ vision, mission and value statement,
organizational structure, as well as the goals and objectives of the business.
• The business operations include aspects such as implementing policies, managing processes,
monitoring and controlling daily activities and satisfying the needs of customers to ensure profitability.


➢ Risk management: implemented to ensure the strategic plan and business operations are aligned.

, The interrelationship between business strategy, risk management and business operations:

• Risk profile:
➢ The risk profile of the business refers to the degree that a business is willing to accept
risks in pursuit of creating value or to achieve the businesses goals.
➢ The risk profile is directly related to the strategy of the business.
➢ Any business should try to achieve a balance between business growth, possible
returns and risks.
