Download or read book Y2K Risk Management written by Steven H. Goldberg and published by . This book was released on 1999-01-29 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is naive to think we will all be prepared for Y2K by December 31, 1999. This is an important and timely book in which the authors provide clear and cogent advice for managing the entire spectrum of Year 2000 business and legal risks." -Dr. Edward Yardeni, Chief Economist, Deutsche Bank Securities Y2K Risk Management Every organization needs an effective risk management strategy to address Year 2000 business and legal risks, even if your own computer systems are repaired and tested. Your vendors may be unable to deliver supplies and customers unable to pay invoices. Failures of public and private infrastructure systems-such as power, water, and transportation-could cause major operational disruptions. If you suffer Y2K financial losses, you may need to seek compensation from responsible parties. Or if you are unable to meet contractual, fiduciary, or regulatory obligations as a result of Year 2000 problems, you may face litigation. This indispensable guide reveals the legal landscape unique to Y2K and covers such vital topics as: * Business and legal risk assessment * Identifying and safeguarding mission-critical business functions * Fast-tracking a Y2K project * Evaluating and protecting the supply chain * Developing contingency plans and fall-back procedures * Preparing a legal audit and reducing liability exposure * Substantiating due diligence of Y2K compliance efforts * Implications of the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure Act, SEC disclosure rules, and independent auditing guidelines * Insurance coverage issues * Exercising fiduciary duties and protecting corporate officers and information technology professionals * Litigation planning and alternative dispute resolution
Download or read book Countdown Y2K written by Peter de Jager and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 1999 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "For a book written about computers, and the management of technology, and the management of the people who have to manage the technology, Countdown displays unusual clarity and logic. Not only is the array of checklists and 'ask yourself' questions effective, they are also efficient." -Bruce Chapman, President, Discovery Institute Countdown Y2K Written by the experts who first sounded the international Y2K wake-up call, this complete update of the bestseller Managing 00 gives you the need-to-know facts about the most far-reaching computer glitch of all time. You'll find easy-to-follow explanations of the entire scope of the problem from the desktop to embedded systems, from the corporate backoffice to corporate liability, and from revenue loss to infrastructure failure. Emphasizing that the Y2K problem is much more of a management issue than a technical one, this straightforward guide gives you solid advice to ensure business continuity through and beyond January 1, 2000. Peter de Jager and Richard Bergeon also provide an updated picture of Y2K government activities and Y2K remediation progress worldwide. An extensive case study provides a snapshot of a hypothetical business in the process of evaluating Year 2000 risks. This and other valuable tools will help you formulate your own end-to-end Y2K survival plan. Countdown Y2K explains: * The background and current status of popular Y2K remedies * Commercial Y2K tools, outsourcing opportunities, and other solution resources * PC-based exposure and hidden dangers like the BIOS problem * Finding and inventorying embedded systems at risk * Testing procedures, including running a pilot program * Training and keeping your valuable Y2K staff * Evaluating Y2K risks from vendors and customers * International Y2K complications, like EMU * Legal issues and corporate liabilities * Triage, contingency planning, and disaster recovery Peter de Jager's Web site at www.year2000.com features current news and commentary, solution providers and staffing databases, and links to all relevant Year 2000 information.
Book Synopsis Risk Management: The State of the Art by : Stephen Figlewski
Download or read book Risk Management: The State of the Art written by Stephen Figlewski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Very often, we associate the dawn of modern financial theory with Harry Markowitz who in the 1950s introduced the formal mathematics of probability theory to the problem of managing risk in an asset portfolio. The 1970s saw the advent of formal models for pricing options and other derivative contracts, whose primary purpose was also financial risk management and hedging. But events in the 1990s made it clear that effective risk management is a critical element for success, and indeed, for long term survival, not only for financial institutions, but also for industrial firms, and even for nonprofit organizations and governmental bodies. These recent events vividly show that the world is filled with all manner of risks, and so risk management must extend far beyond the use of standard derivative instruments in routine hedging applications. The articles in this volume cover two broad themes. One theme emphasizes methods for identifying, modeling, and hedging specific types of financial and business risks. Articles in this category consider the technology of risk measurement, such as Value at Risk and extreme value theory; new classes of risk, such as liquidity risk; new financial instruments and markets for risk management, such as derivative contracts based on weather and on catastrophic insurance risks; and finally, credit risk, which has become one of the most important areas of practical interest for risk management. The second theme stresses risk management from the perspective of the firm and the financial system as a whole. Articles in this category analyze risk management in the international arena, including payment and settlement risks and sovereign risk pricing, risk management from the regulator's viewpoint, and risk management for financial institutions. The articles in this volume examine the "State of the Art" in risk management from the standpoint of academic researchers, market analysts and practitioners, and government observers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Project Management Institute’s David I. Cleland Project Management Literature Award 2010 It’s no wonder that project managers spend so much time focusing their attention on risk identification.

Drawing on real-world situations and hundreds of examples, the book outlines proven methods, demonstrating key ideas for project risk planning and showing how to use high-level risk assessment tools. Analyzing aspects such as available resources, project scope, and scheduling, this new edition also explores the growing area of Enterprise Risk Management.
