a free Webinar about an organisation development- and diagnostic risk approach to implementing ISO 31000 in organisations.
The Webinar involves a brief presentation by Dr. Dean Myburgh, a New Zealand-based Risk Management Consultant with specialist diagnostic expertise; there will also be an opportunity for discussion on this approach that enables consultants and internal risk management facilitators to:
One of the most concerning trends that continually persists in operational risk management, is the lack of interest from analysts to attempt to quantify this risk exposure coherently.
In this blog we look operational risk from the perspective of the normal and the extreme.
Our partners at marcus evans conducted an interview with Mr. Hubert Roslund recently and kindly gave us a preferential permission to publish it on our website.
MACROECONOMICS AND COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE – THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING A HOUSE VIEW ON BOTH MARKETS
One of the biggest reasons for bank failures during the recession was failure in Commercial Real Estate portfolios. Loan standards spiralled out of control and banks were unprepared for the crash that followed. The U.S. CRE market is sluggis
If there is a Bank Credit Portfolio with the dates of payment expired, isn't it interesting to measure how much is the (accumulated) Probability, the Borrowers do NOT pay ?
If interesting, send me just the two arrays: 1) the credits 2) the actual payments. For safety, the numbers can be multiplied by any number only you and God knows. Free.
In this short journal post, we share a presentation that reviews some of the problems of risk management in property development, how risk management currently functions in this industry sector and why it would be advantageous to adopt ISO 31000 in property development.

Aggregation is a way to combine several single indicators representing different components (dimensions)
of the same concept to form a single aggregate. The result leads to a single score, called a composite
indicator, which has the ability to summarize a large amount of information in a comprehensible form .
Aggregation requires the determination of a weighting scheme of the different components. This task is
extremely difficult and is one of the c
It just seems the either no one is measuring realized risk exposure numbers for their firms, or mums the word on their findings. The information that I collect is strongly covered by Non-Disclosure Agreements. To help with this, I want to start publishing de-identified statistical abstracts.
I included some of these statistical abstracts in the financial section of a paper published by ANSI. I am a coauthor on, "The Financial Impact of Breach Health Information, A Business Case for Enhanced
Should we retrofit ISO 31000 to become the umbrella for enterprise risk management?
ISO 31000 has two key issues for integration in the enterprise. The first is an accidental creation of conflict from the ISO standards board, the other is a missed oversight on what is happening on the ground.
In this blog we take a look at both of these problems [ Click link to continue reading ]
Since the financial crisis, the banking climate has changed considerably. What used to be an abundant landscape where most, if not all banking providers coexisted profitably, is gone.
Today, banks have been forced to operate in a drastically more competitive environment. Increased access to information, advances in technology and greater choice has given the consumer more freedom to ‘shop around’, placing them clearly in the driving seat.
The longstanding relationships banks once enjoyed with thei

Risk management solutions are not a separate module or product. Instead, they compose an approach that adds value to both top-down and bottom-up activities within the organization.
Risk management is in everyone's job description and ERM is all about how to identify the aspect of risk management in every role and connect the dots automatically using the “Six Degrees of Separation Theory” that I discussed in my last blog to get right to the people who know the risk and are responsible for the risk
From one passionate Project Manager to another. For all you Risk Management evangelists out there, my next blog posts will help you understand the Risk Management Process. These posts will contain several short and sweet parts where I will give some practical implementation of the theory.
Why Risk Management is necessary for Projects?
Many, many projects fail? Why? It’s got to be scope creep, schedule delays, cost overrun, poor quality and/or customer dissatisfaction right? No. Not really – thes
Developed multiple financial arbitrages that allowed me to invest in the financial markets without risk. Produced a business model for the arbitrage, that is ready to be implemented. This model applies to all business sectors.
The model allows the buyer to purchase any product or service and receive a 100% rebate, and possible to have all their financed payment's made for them.
Based on the production of approx. 40% return from arbitrage. Based on What I produced over 7yrs.

Douglas Hubbard, in his book "The Failure of Risk Management", claims that risk management failed us in the lead up to the GFC because of flawed risk models, the use of qualitative risk assessment through the use of risk matrices or both. He contends that anything can be measured and that we should be measuring.
The case for quantification
There is no doubt in my mind that quantification is better than using our best judgement because our minds are at the mercy of our psychological biases. A coup
While Voluntary/Worksite benefits have been around for years - I started getting my feet wet in 1986 - the number of "Choices" in Carriers and Plans has grown dramatically! There's more Demand, more Choices, and more Responsibilities!
Let's start with some simple Tips for Brokers - The Dos, Don'ts and Things to Remember!
Occasionally the SEC and other regulators will castigate, actually punish, fraudulent events on Wall Street. Of course the real punishment is only meted out to individuals and small companies. Mega banks – the banking mafia – are largely immune.
Martha Stewart was convicted of insider trading in 2004 – a relatively small amount – and was sent to jail. It was an act of fraud alright, but it pales in comparison to the fraud of Wall Street banks.

Effective governance requires changes in the way risks are managed across "stove-pipes" or "business silos". More often than not, when loss events occur it becomes clear after the fact that different silos were holding onto different pieces of the risk puzzle but no one could put the pieces together. So the problem is how to identify risk?
Many risk managers are so bogged down by loss event capture and incident management, that being able to focus on preventing loss events and identifying emergi
The International Organisation for Standardization is about to enter into a trial review for its ISO 31004 guide. Meanwhile, the risk community is generally aware of what it seems to struggle with and the world of risk knows that certain aspects of risk management are simply not verbose enough in ISO 31000.
So then, perhaps it's time to write up our own ISO 31004 wishlist for solving the Achilles' Heel in ISO 31000.
