The environment in which the organizations operate is rapidly changing. The effects of limited resources, downsizing and de-layering are placing greater demands on the company to continue to be competitive in the market and to remain the best choice of investors. The need for effective financial management may be greater than ever.
To best of our understanding, the objectives of financial management can be described as:
Risk management is a planned approach to managing uncertainty through risk assessment, developing strategies to manage it, and mitigation of risk using managerial resources.
The strategies include transferring the risk to another party, avoiding the risk, reducing the negative effect of the risk, and accepting some or all of the consequences of a particular risk.
Some traditional risk managements are focused on risks stemming from physical or legal causes (e.g. natural disasters or fires, accidents, death and lawsuits). Financial risk management, on the other hand, focuses on risks that can be managed using traded financial instruments.
