In an ever-changing business environment, encountering risk is inevitable. The ability to manage these increasingly significant risks is now the difference between a business thriving and one struggling to meet the challenges it faces. A properly organized and focused risk management process and a strong risk management team will allow you to maintain and strengthen your competitive advantage over your competitors. In addition, studies have shown that financial risk is only the "tip of the iceberg", as almost 80% of key risks are not insurable. This critical 80% of risks must be “insured” internally by a capable risk management team. A enterprise risk management strategy is planned and implemented with the aim of identifying, evaluating and preparing for any potential threats and dangers that the business may face. The key is to realize that risk is not something businesses should avoid – risk is often an opportunity in disguise.

A maximum of 50 points can be awarded for the course credit. To receive the credit, students must obtain more than 30 points.
The final examination takes the form of a written test (maximum 50 points). The final grade is determined by the total number of points obtained from the course credit and the final examination.

Aims
Enterprise risk management deepens students' knowledge not only of business risk management topics, but also of strategic risks (including tools for linking strategy and risk, integrating risk management into the strategic architecture of the enterprise, scenario planning, war games and risk ownership maps); risk assessment techniques (including the selection and use of various techniques during the risk management process, probabilistic and other quantitative risk assessment techniques); risk transfer (including insurance, reinsurance). Students will acquire the skills to identify, evaluate and manage various business risks that could adversely affect the implementation of the company's strategy.
