Classification
of |
||
|
In
real operation, risks that companies face are in various forms. The
first stage of risk management is to properly classify all the risks.
Due to different standards of classification, it is very difficult to
conduct risk classification, which makes people puzzled about the
standards. Almost every book of risk management has its own theory.
Management of enterprise risk certainly has strong characters, and
different companies have their own stress. But from the general view of
risk management in company, risks can be classified by their characters
as follow: a. Harmful risk
Harmful risk, also called pure risk, refers to the risk that only has
the possibility of loss while without any chance of obtaining profits.
There are only two possible results of it: getting or getting no loss.
Since there is no possibility of profit, all we can do is to minimize
the possibility of loss as much as we can. However it is just the
theory. There is indeed cost in harmful risk control in practice. So
when the amount of the reduction of risk loss is less than the cost of
control, there is no need to control it. In this case, the harmful risk
management is to obtain the balance between loss and cost. The harmful
risks can be divided into two kinds: operational risk and
non-operational risk. Operational risk means the loss caused by the
internal management mistakes of a company. Non-operational risk means
the non-operation loss caused by the external environment of a company.
Non-operational risk can be further divided into insurable risk and
non-insurable risk. With the development of the insurance market, the
scope of insurable risk is becoming larger and larger. b. Financial risk Financial risk, also called venture risk, refers to the risk that has possibilities of both loss and profit. It has three possible results: getting loss, getting nothing or getting profits. Generally speaking, profits come together with risks. As the possibility of profit goes hand in hand with financial risk, the financial risk management is not simply to minimize it. In financial risk management, the risks assumed by a company should be decided by the preference of those people who take the risk and a perfect loss management system should be set up at the same time. In doing so, the company will become more competitive. Financial risk can be divided into operation risk and market risk. Operation risk means the risk of operation caused by the external environment of a company. Market risk means the risk caused by the variable elements directly related to a company’s operation. Actually it is not an easy job to distinguish the operation risk from the market risk.
