What is the Risk


Management
Process?
Risk Management
Process Definition
In business, risk management is defined as the process of
identifying, monitoring and managing potential risks in
order to minimize the negative impact they may have on an
organization. Examples of potential risks include security
breaches, data loss, cyberattacks, system failures and
natural disasters. An effective risk management process
will help identify which risks pose the biggest threat to an
organization and provide guidelines for handling them.
Risk Management Structures
Risk management structures are tailored to do more than just point out existing
risks. A good risk management structure should also calculate the uncertainties
and predict their influence on a business. Consequently, the result is a choice
between accepting risks or rejecting them. Acceptance or rejection of risks is
dependent on the tolerance levels that a business has already defined for itself.
If a business sets up risk management as a disciplined and continuous process
for the purpose of identifying and resolving risks, then the risk management
structures can be used to support other risk mitigation systems. They include
planning, organization, cost control, and budgeting. In such a case, the business
will not usually experience many surprises, because the focus is on proactive risk
management.
The 3 Steps of
Risk
Management
The risk management process consists of
three parts: risk assessment and analysis, risk
evaluation and risk treatment. Below, we delve
further into the three components of risk
management and explain what you can do to
simplify the process.
1. Risk Assessment
& Analysis
The first step of the risk management process is called the
risk assessment and analysis stage. A risk assessment
evaluates an organization’s exposure to uncertain events
that could impact its day-to-day operations and estimates
the damage those events could have on an organization’s
revenue and reputation.
Effectively assessing and analyzing an organization’s risks
helps protect assets, improve decision making and optimize
operational efficiency across the board to save money, time,
and resources.
2. Risk Evaluation
After the risk assessment/analysis has been completed, a
risk evaluation should take place. A risk evaluation compares
estimated risks against risk criteria that the organization has
already established. Risk criteria can include associated
costs and benefits, socio-economic factors, legal
requirements, and system malfunctions.
3. Risk Treatment &
Response
The last step in the risk management process is risk treatment and
response. Risk treatment is the implementation of policies and
procedures that will help avoid or minimize risks. Risk treatment
also extends to risk transfer and risk financing.
It is important to note that risk management is an ongoing process
and does not end once risks have been identified and mitigated. An
organization’s risk management policies should be revisited every
year to ensure policies are up-to-date and relevant.
Our business ventures
encounter many risks
that can affect their
survival and growth. As a

Summary
result, it is important to
understand the basic
principles of risk
management and how
they can be used to help
mitigate the effects of
risks on business
entities.
