Opis

Measuring and managing risk in organizations is not simple in theory or in practice. This book provides an overview of the field alongside a cross-section of case studies from a range of industries. In an updated edition, the author adds a new case on cyber risk whilst bringing the other stories up to date with significant changes. Expert analysis of the risk management practice in organizations in the public sector, global retail (Tesco), and finance (Royal Bank of Scotland) ensures that readers benefit from substantial learning opportunities. In setting the scene as part of a wider corporate governance agenda, the book is essential reading for risk management professionals and postgraduate and executive learners.
