A great deal has happened in the world of risk management since the last edition: the growth of global terrorism, spectacular corporate collapses, and greater emphasis on corporate governance in the running of both public and private organisations.
Much of this text covers general methodologies and approaches than can be applied no matter the nature of the risk or the changing environment in which risks occur. However, this new edition is updated and adds a new chapter on new risk analysis techniques.
