This unit examines enterprise risk management, processes and techniques aimed at the cost effective loss prevention of an entity's assets and resources. It provides a strong business foundation that can be applied in business planning and decision making. In the wake of the spate of corporate collapses, a risk-based approach to evaluate and plan business activities is now an accepted paradigm. The unit covers topics of risks: strategic, operational, reputational, contractual, financial and information system, while addressing emerging challenges. The unit is presented with a corporate governance focus. -- Course Website
