IC86 Mock Test Sample 17
Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and alternative risk financing techniques help organizations identify, assess, treat, and monitor risks effectively. Risk analysis includes identification and evaluation, while risk treatment includes elimination, reduction, and transfer. Tools such as HAZOP, insurance securitization, finite risk reinsurance, and integrated risk management combine insurance and capital market approaches for better protection against high-severity risks. Environmental disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes, and freezing conditions highlight the need for proactive planning. Contracts and obligations are legally binding arrangements essential for governance. Written risk management policies improve coordination, communication, and responsibility allocation. Self-insurance and contingent capital tools provide additional financial protection mechanisms.
