Lynch, a noted risk management consultant, addresses corporate value chains and how these indicators are used to evaluate how well a company manages risk. The author notes how the current
market has forced many businesses to become more cautious due to increased volatility, especially in this age of computer hackers, fears of pandemics, terrorism, identity theft and reckless
lending policies. This book will help executives and managers devise a realistic and practical strategy for managing risk in these environments by identifying specific corporate vulnerabilities
and planning survival plans if losses do occur. Case studies are also presented to show how a value chain risk management approach can make a business stronger and more resistant in the face of
radical changes. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
