RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Introduction People undertake business activities with the main objective of making profit. As there is a chance to get profit, there is also a possibility of loss due to one of the essential characteristics of a business in that it involves an element of  risk.

Risk exist because there is no perfect foresight about the future. 4

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

INTRODUCTION  Risk is undesirable and its consequences are at times damaging

to

individuals,  businesses and  the society as a whole, mankind is constantly developing its predictive ability through the constant upgrading and refinement of its knowledge. The more mankind is knowledgeable about the future, the more certain it will be concerning future events. But the disappointing phenomenon is that perfect foresight about the future is something impossible. Thus, risk becomes a fact of life that will remain side by side with the activities of mankind. 

risk management in firms. There is a need to identity possible risks. There is a necessity to device and employ preventive measures. To manage risk, it is imperative to anticipate the possible consequences of our actions. As such, this training manual discusses    

the nature of risk, its identification, measurement and management processes in general and in cement factories in particular. 6

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  Risk Defined  No comprehensive definition exists so far.  It is defined in different forms by several authors with some

differences in the wordings used.  The essence, however, is very similar.  In general, risk refers to exposure to adverse consequences.  Some definitions are as forwarded to you below:

 is a possibility of an adverse deviation from a desired outcome

that is expected.  is the possibility that something we don't want to happen will happen or that something we want to happen will fail to do so.  is the variation in outcome that could occur over a specified period in a given situation.

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  For example,  in a manufacturing organization, there may be a reliance on a critical component produced by a third party without which the product cannot be manufactured.  Unavailability of this component would severely disrupt, if not stop the business process.

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  Sources of risk  Sources of risk are the sources of factors or hazards that may contribute to positive or negative outcomes.  It can be classified in different ways.  Authorities classify sources of risk in various ways.  Some identify general sources while others become more specific.  how the environment in which the firm operates can become source of risk ?

Physical Environment  Social Environment  Political Environment  Legal Environment 

11

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  Physical environment  This source of risk emanates from our ability to fully

understand our environment and the effect we have on it as well as those that have on us.  Examples of physical environment  Earthquakes,  drought, or excessive rainfall can all lead to accidental

losses.

behavior, social structures and institutions, etc. A social environment is a reflection of cultural, religious, and moral values of people. As these values differ significantly, the social environment in different areas differs. For example comparison of a social environment in Addis and Nairobi may reveal that Addis is less risk y than Nairobi. Note that social environment also includes the working habit of people. A social environment, which is reflected by cultural,13

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  Political environment  A change in government or a change in its composition may bring with it new policy directions that might have dramatic effects on a firm’s operation.  For instance, if one government in a country changes to a very hostile government that fails to recognize the rights of people, business people could find themselves in risky situations.  Moreover, when a country is in a political upheaval or when the government lacks credibility, political environment can be a source of risk. 14

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  Political environment  In the international realm, the political environment is even more complex  Some countries might confiscate foreign business people’s assets or may change their policies, in a way that impedes their operations.  You may remember what the Eritrean government did to Ethiopian business people during Ethio-Eritrea conflict.  This is a good example of politically motivated risk.  In fact one can see how the Djibouti government creates problems by changing port related policies overnight. 15

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  Legal environment  A great deal of uncertainty and risk might arise from the legal system as it evolves new standards that may not be fully anticipated.   

The lease policy, the investment codes and the general policy of an economy concerning

 businesses have a big impact on the economy and

unexpected unfavorable changes would mean a lot in terms of causing risks.  This complexity increases in the international domain as legal standards may vary from country to country. 16

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK AND RELATED CONCEPTS  Related concepts to risk are the following;  Uncertainty  Probability  Peril  Hazard

18

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk versus Uncertainty  People often confuse the terms risk and uncertainty.

The terms are distinct concepts.  Uncertainty  Is the doubt a person has concerning his or her ability to 







predict which of the many outcomes will occur? Is a person’s conscious awareness of the risk in a given situation Depends upon the person’s estimated risk-what that person believes to be the state of the world-and the confidence he or she has in this belief. Exists only with awareness; it is a state of mind whereby a sentient entity experience19

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk versus Uncertainty  Some authors argue that  risk may cause uncertainty.  Thus, the relationship between risk and uncertainty is established in terms of cause and effect.  They state that “knowledge of the existence of risk and appreciation of its significance creates a feeling of uncertainty.  Risk, when we are aware of it, cause uncertainty.” Unlike probability & risk, uncertainty cannot be measured by any commonly accepted yardstick.  In general uncertainty results in a feeling of insecurity. 20

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Decision making techniques under uncertainty  Maximax  Maximin  Laplace  Criterion of realism  Regret criterion

21

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk versus Uncertainty  Some authors differentiates risk and uncertainty in

such a way that  risk involves assigning the true theoretical or estimated

probabilities to the possible outcomes;  where as in the case of uncertainty it is difficult to estimate and assign probabilities.  Thus, risk is understood as a situation where the probability distribution of possible future events is known,  whereas such is not the case under uncertainty. 22

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk versus Uncertainty  Example:  The risk of cigarette smoking existed the moment cigarettes are produced.  However, uncertainty did not arise until the relationship between cigarette smoking and cancer is established through scientific and empirical research.  Hence, risk is the state of the world while uncertainty is the state of mind.

23

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk versus Probability  There exists also some confusion as to the difference

between risk and probability.  Probability is the long-run chance of occurrence or

relative frequency of some event;  whereas risk is the relative variation of actual loss from expected loss.  Probabilities are generally assigned to events that are expected to happen in the future.

24

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk versus Probability  Thus to each possible event is assigned a corresponding

    

probability of occurrence that leads to probability distribution. This means that probability relates to a single possible event. Risk, on the other hand, refers to the variation in the possible outcomes. This means that risk depends on the entire probability distribution. It indicates the concept of variability. Risk and probability are, therefore, two different things. 25

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk Example: versus Probability Consider the occurrence of a particular event.  One extreme is that the event is certain to take

place.100% but there is no risk (risk=0) because there is a perfect foresight as to the occurrence of the event in this regard.  The other extreme is the event will not take place at all (0) . Here, too, there is certainty and, therefore, no risk.  In between these two extremes there could be several occurrences of the events with the corresponding probabilities of occurrence.  This puts us in a situation of uncertainty because it is

26

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk, Peril and Hazards  Peril  Peril refers to the specific cause of a loss.  It is the prime cause or what will give rise to the loss.  e.g. fire, windstorm, theft, flood, explosion, collusion, etc  Hazards  refer to the condition that may create or increase the chance of loss arising from a given peril.  affects the magnitude (severity) and frequency of a loss.  increase the effect should a peril operate.  The more hazardous conditions are, the higher the 27

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk, Peril categories and Hazards  Three of hazards are identified:  Physical hazard  This is associated with the physical properties of the items exposed to risk. Conditions

stemming from the physical characteristics of an object.  Examples may include:  





Type of construction (wood, bricks) Location of property (near burglar area, flood area, earthquake area). Occupancy of building (dry cleaning, chemicals, supermarkets) Existence of dry forest-for fire

28

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk, Peril and Hazards  Moral Hazard:  Originates from evil tendencies in the character of

the insured person.  is associated with human nature: qualities, reputation, attitude, etc.  Stems from dishonesty or character defects of an individual that increases the probability as well as the severity of loss.  Examples may include:    

Faking an accident to collect insurance money. Submitting a fraudulent claim. Inflating (exaggerating) the size of a claim. Intentionally burning unsold merchandise that is

29

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk, Peril and Hazards  Morale Hazard  It does not involve dishonesty but it occurs due to

lack of concern for events.  Carelessness or indifference to a loss because of the existence of insurance.  This type of individual does not appear to deliberately cause the accident that happen  Examples may include:    

Leaving key in an unlocked Leaving a door unlocked Poor housekeeping in stores Cigarette smoking around petrol station. 30

Hazards in cement industries and their sources  Risks in cement factories emanate from the processes

involved in  the production and  distribution of cement products and

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Quarrying  The quarrying activity includes  the drilling of bore holes,  the filling up of explosives and  the triggering of the explosives.  Once this happens then the material is loaded and

transported either to open storage piles or to the crushing area.  During the process of charging and ignition, the explosives are transported to the explosion area from the explosive storage facilities. 34

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Hazards as a result of the storage , transport and use of explosives

 The explosives are stored only in approved

sites that have to comply with the requirements of relevant legislation.  During explosives storage the main hazards are the following:  Storing explosives and capsules in the same area  Entry of unauthorized persons in the area  Smoking or use of naked flame in the

 Storage of other equipment Hazards as a result of the goods storage,and transport and use of explosives  Bad housekeeping in and out of the warehouse.  Inadequate distance (<10cm) between the containers

and the warehouse wall  Insufficient building maintenance (lighting, ventilation) with the possibility of concentration of humidity in the warehouse  Execution of non-approved maintenance work on the warehouse electrical wiring.  Insufficient warehouse security  Not following the FIFO (First In First Out) in the management of explosive stocks 36

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Hazards during the transport of the explosives are:

 The use of unauthorized vehicles  The transport of explosives together with

capsule as well as not keeping the necessary labeling during transport  The carrying of passengers  The unplanned stoppage  The transport of explosives during unstable weather 37

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Hazards use of explosives are: rules and  Theduring failure the to implement the company regulations  The use of unauthorized explosives  The failure to use the approved explosion plan  The failure to prevent unauthorized person to approach the explosives area  The transport of more than required explosives quantity  The temporary storage of explosives at excessive temperatures (greater than 65 degrees Celsius) or near naked flame 38

Hazards during thethe use filling of explosives are: triggering the  During up and

explosives the main hazards are:  The triggering of the explosives by unauthorized personnel or outside the agreed timetable  The insufficient warning prior to triggering  The approach of other persons other than the person in charge near the explosion area following the triggering 39

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Hazards during holing process  During the the boreBore holing process the basic hazards are:  The moving parts of the bore holing machinery Falls from height  Material falling from height  Crushing of quarry table  Hurling of material  Presence of dust and noise  Movement of earth moving equipment 40

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Crushing Hazards  The rotational movement and the movement of the parts of the crusher  The exposure to noise and dust of the personnel responsible for the continuous control of the crusher  The maintenance activities inside the crushing chamber  The electrical problems  The activities inside the hopper due to:  The operation of the feeder  The possible crushing of material 41

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Crushing Hazards  The movement of heavy goods vehicles:  Reversing of the vehicle into the hopper

 Accident on personnel

 The inappropriate loading of material

onto the heavy goods vehicles with the result that  material is hurled from the vehicle as the material is transported.

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Objective VsRisk Subjective Risk  Objective  The relative variation of actual from probable or

expected loss.  Refers to the variation that exists in nature  is the same for all persons facing the same situation.  Is concerned with the range of variability of economic losses about some long-run average (most probable) loss in a group large enough to analyze significantly in a statistical sense.

 Objective Risk = loss

Probable variation of actual Probable losses

44

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Example  Consider the probability of fire losses to buildings in two towns A and B.  There are 100,000 buildings in each town and, on average each town has 100 fire losses per year.  By looking at historical data from the towns, statisticians are able to estimate that in town A, the actual number of fire losses during the next year will very likely, range from 95 to 105. In town B, however, the range probably will be greater, with at least 80 fire losses expected and possible as many as 120.  Objective risk A = 105-95 = 10% 

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Pure Vs Speculative Risks  The distinction primarily rest on profit/loss structure of

the underlying situations, in which the events occur.  Pure risks  refer to the situation in which only a loss or no loss would occur.  There is only two distinct outcomes loss or no loss.  Most pure risks are insurable.  They are always undesirable and hence people take steps to avoid such risks. These risks have no element of gain   

Classification of pure risks  Personal Risk  



Are risks that directly affect an individual Refers to the possibility of loss to a person such as: death, disability, loss of earning power, etc… Involve the possibility of the complete loss or reduction of earned income, extra expenses, and the depletion of financial assets.

 Property Risk 





Refers to losses associated with ownership of a property, such as destruction of property by fire. Persons owning property are exposed to the risk of having their property damaged or lost from numerous causes Property risk stems from diverse perils accompanied by48

Cont’d  Liability risk  Is the possibility of loss arising from intentional or

unintentional damage made to other persons or to their property.

 Speculative Risk  can result in three possible outcomes, loss, breakeven, or gain situations.  People may deliberately create speculative risks when they realize that the favorable (gain) outcome is, indeed, so promising. Examples may include;  

Investing in a venture Gambling transaction 49

Static Vs Dynamic  Dynamic Risks Risks 



Originate from changes in the overall economy such as price level change, changes in consumer tastes, income distribution, technological changes, political changes. Are less predictable and hence beyond the control of the risk manager.

 Static Risks  Are losses arising from causes other than changes in the economy.  Are predictable and could be controlled to some extent by taking loss prevention measures.  Many of the perils fall under this category. 50

Risks RelatedRisk to Business Activities  Financial  This is associated with debt financing.  Borrowing results in the payment of periodic interest

charge and the payment of the principal upon maturity.  There is a risk of default by the company if operations are not profitable.  Other financial risks include: bankruptcy, stock price decline, and insolvency.

 Interest Rate Risk  This is a risk resulting from changes in interest rates.  Changes in interest rates affect the prices of financial securities such as the prices of bonds etc. for interest rate 54 rise depresses bond prices and vice versa.

management?

59

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Risk management defined Risk management is a general management function that seeks to assess and address the  causes and  effects of uncertainty and risk on an organization.

 Risk management is the  identification,  measurement and  treatment  of exposure to potential accidental losses almost

always in situation where the only possible outcomes are losses or no change in the status. 60

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK MANAGEMENT  Risk management PROCESS  is the systematic process for the identification

and evaluation of pure loss exposures faced by an organization or individual and for the selection and implementation of the most appropriate techniques for treating such exposures.  is a discipline that systematically identifies and analyses the various loss exposures faced by a firm or organization and the best methods of treating the loss exposures consistent with the 61 organization’s goals and objectives.

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

RISK MANAGEMENT PROCESS  Risk Management practices are widely used in public

and the private sectors, covering a wide range of activities or operations.  These include:  Finance and Investment  Insurance  Health Care

 Public Institutions  Governments  Risk Management is now an integral part of business

planning.

The Risk Management process steps are a generic guide for any organization,

63

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Functions of Risk Management  From the above definition one can infer that, there are

certain duties left for the risk manager of an organization. These include:  To recognize exposures to loss:  The risk manager must first of all be aware of the

possibility of type of loss.  This is a fundamental duty which must precede all other function of risk management.

 To estimate the frequency and size (severity) of

loss;  Once the possible type of loss is identified, the risk

manager has to estimate the probability of loss from

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Objectives of Risk Management  Risk management has several important objectives  Mere survival,  peace of mind,  lower risk management costs and hence     

Higher profits, Fairly stable earnings, Little or no interruption of operation, Continued growth, Satisfaction of the firm’s sense of social 69

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Objectives Risk Management Theseofobjectives of risk management can be classified as pre-loss and post-loss.  Pre-loss objectives: - are objectives to be achieved prior to the occurrence of any loss. They include: 





Handle potential losses in the most economical way possible Reduction of anxiety and fear associated with all loss exposures. Meeting externally imposed obligations 70

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Objectives of objectives: Risk Management  Post-loss - objectives to be achieved after a loss has occurred, they include:

 The survival of the firm  Survival means after a loss occurs, the firm can at least resume partial operation within some reasonable time period if it chooses to do so.  To continue operating  For some firms the ability to operate after a severe loss is an extremely important objective.  Stability of earnings  The firm wants to maintain its earnings per share after a loss occurs. 71

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Cont’d  To maintain continued growth of the

firm  A firm may grow by developing new products and markets or by acquisitions and mergers. The risk manager must consider the impact that a loss will have on the firm’s ability to grow.  To meet the goal of social responsibility  It aims to minimize the impact that a loss

72

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Activity  In groups of five  Take 15 minutes  Discuss  The possible contribution of risk

management  To whom does risk management contributes something? 73

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Contribution of Risk Management  The possible contribution of risk management is discussed below:  Contribution to a Business

 The possible contribution of risk management to a business can be divided in to five major categories:

1. Risk management may make the difference between survival and failure.  Some losses may so cripple a firm that without proper advance preparation for such events the firm must close its doors. 74

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Contribution of Risk Management 2. Risk management can contribute directly to business profits by reducing expenses as well as increasing income 3. Risk management can contribute indirectly to business profits in the following ways:  By reduce the fluctuations in annual profits and cash

flows.  make it possible to continue operations following a loss, thus retaining customers or suppliers who might otherwise turn to competitors through advance preparation. 75

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Contribution of Risk Management 4. Because the risk management plan may help

others such as employees, who would be affected by losses to the firm, risk management can also help satisfy the firm’s sense of social responsibility or desire for a good public image. 5. The peace of mind made possible by sound management of pure risks may itself be a valuable non-economic asset because it improves the physical and mental health of the management 76 and owners.

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Cont’d  Contribution to Family  The possible contributions may include:  Protecting the family against catastrophic losses  Reduction of expenditure for insurance without reducing its protection  Provision of relief from physical or mental strain

 Contribution to a society  To the extent that individual businesses and

families benefit from risk management, so does the society of which they are members. 77

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

The Risk Management Process  Risk management is the  identification,  measurement, and

 treatment

 of  property,

 liability, and  personal pure-risk exposures.

 The process includes five steps: 78

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

The Risk Management Process Step 1: Identification of Loss Exposures (Risks)  This is the process in which the organization is able to learn areas in which it is exposed to risk.  It is the most important, and perhaps the most difficult function that the risk manager or administrator must perform from among the element of the risk management process.  It involves the identification of  risks that affect the organization and  identification of the related hazards 79

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Categories of Loss  Although in Exposures the broadest sense the entire organization is at exposure to risk, it is useful to develop categories of exposures for analytical purposes.  Physical asset exposures  Ownership of property gives rise to possible losses or

gains to physical assets.  Property could be   

damaged, destroyed, lost or 80

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Categories Loss Exposures  LiabilityofExposures  Obligation imposed by the legal system creates this

type of exposures.  Liability losses arise out of damage to or destruction of other’s property or personal injuries to others.

 Human Asset Exposures :  This involves such loses as;  Losses to the firm itself as a result of the death,

disability or old age of employees, customers, or owners.  Losses to the families of the personnel or the personnel themselves as a result of their death, disability, old age, or unemployment. 81

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

The Risk Management process:

Identify the risks Defining types of risk, for instance, ‘Strategic’ risks to the goals and objectives of the organisation. • Identifying the stakeholders, (i.e.,who is involved or affected). • Past events, future developments.

Methods of risk identification

Because most businesses are  complex,  diversified,  dynamic operations,

a more systematic method of

exploring all facets of the specific firm is highly desirable. 84

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Methods risk identification  Seven of methods that have been suggested are:  The risk analysis questionnaire  Financial statement method  Flow-chart method  On-site inspections  Interactions with other departments 85

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

 This

measurement includes the determination of:  The probability or chance that the loss will occur /frequency of occurrences of losses/  The impact the losses would have up on the financial affairs of the firm or the family, should they occur /size or severity of loss/

Step 2: Measurement of the losses associated with the different exposures

86

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Step 2: Measurement of the losses associated with the different exposures

The

measurement process is important because it indicates  the exposures that are most serious and  consequently most in need of urgent attention. It also yields information needed 87

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Step 3: Consideration of Alternative Risk Management Tools  This involves comparison of various risk management tools and decision to select the best method.  The risk management tools include:  Risk Avoidance  Risk Reduction

 Risk Transfer  Risk Retention  Risk Diversification 88

RISK ANALYSIS AND MANAGEMENT

Step 4: Implementation of Decision  Involves putting the chosen method into action.

Step 5: Evaluation and Review  The decision made and implemented in the first four

steps must be monitored to evaluate the wisdom of those decisions to determine whether changing conditions suggest different solutions.
