Levels of risk
hazard risks
1 You pay too much for the car or it is in poor condition
2 You are involved in a collision or road accident
3 The car gets stolen or vindictively damaged
control risks
1 Cost of borrowing money to buy the car could change
2 Price of fuel (petrol or diesel) could go up or down
3 Maintenance, breakdown and repair costs will vary
opportunity risks
1 You can travel more easily than depending on others or using public transport
2 Enhanced job opportunities because you will be more mobile
3 Save money on other forms of public transport
Timescale of risk impact
Long-term
In general terms, long-term risks will impact over years,When a decision is taken
to launch a new product, the result of that decision (and the success of the
product itself) may not be fully apparent for some time.
Medium-term
Medium-term risks have their impact some time after the event occurs or the
decision is taken, and typically this will be about a year later. Medium-term risks
are often associated with projects or programmes of work
Short-term
Short-term risks have their impact immediately after the event occurs. Accidents
at work, traffic accidents, fire and theft are all short-term risks that have an
immediate impact and immediate consequences as soon as the event has
occurred
Minimize compliance risks
Organizations will be aware of the wide range of compliance requirements that they
have to fulfil
Generally speaking, organizations will work towards ensuring full compliance with all
applicable rules and regulations, and thereby minimize the compliance risks.
Mitigate hazard risks
Types of Hazard Risks: Risks are categorized into people, premises, processes, and
products, all of which can disrupt operations.
Risk Management: Focuses on preventing loss, limiting damage, and controlling
recovery costs.
Insurance as Protection: Helps cover financial losses, but poor risk management can
increase insurance costs.
Risk Tolerance: Organizations must set acceptable risk limits and insure against major
losses.
Manage uncertainty (or control) risks
Definition of Control Risks: These risks arise from uncertainty, which is any deviation from expected
outcomes in a project or process.
Managing Uncertainty: Every project involves some level of uncertainty, so organizations should
prepare contingency funds and extra time in project schedules.
Control Implementation: Organizations must allocate resources to identify, implement, and
respond to control risks effectively.
Role in Risk Management: Internal auditors and accountants focus on control management to
safeguard company assets and minimize risk impact.
Balancing Control and Innovation: Too much focus on control can suppress innovation and
entrepreneurship, making risk tolerance an important consideration.
Controllable vs. Uncontrollable Risks: Identifying which risks can be managed and which cannot is
key to effective business risk management.
Embrace opportunity risks
Opportunity risk refers to the risks involved in pursuing new business opportunities, such as launching
new products, improving efficiency, or making strategic changes.
Risk and Decision-Making: Organizations must assess their risk appetite—how willing they are to
take risks—and determine if they have the necessary resources to seize opportunities.
Managing Opportunity Risks: If an organization lacks resources, it can explore mitigation strategies
like partnerships or joint ventures to share the risk.
Role of Leadership: Even if an organization has the appetite for an opportunity, the management
must ensure it has the capacity to support the decision effectively.
Opportunity Management: This approach focuses on maximizing the benefits of entrepreneurial
risks and is closely linked to strategic planning.
Importance in Business Growth: Organizations must take calculated risks to grow and remain
competitive, as opportunity risks can enhance long-term success.
