Enterprise Risk Management: Modern Approaches to Balancing Risk and Reward (2nd ed. 2021.)

This textbook demonstrates how Enterprise Risk Management creates value in strategic- and decision-making-processes.

The author introduces modern approaches to balancing risk and reward based on many examples of medium-sized and large companies from different industries.

Since traditional risk management in practice is often an independent stand-alone process with no impact on decision-making processes, it is unable to create value and ties up resources in the company unnecessarily.

Herewith, he serves students as well as practitioners with modern approaches that promote a connection between ERM and corporate management.

The author demonstrates in a didactically appropriate manner how companies can use ERM in a concrete way to achieve better risk-reward decisions under uncertainty.

Furthermore, theoretical and psychological findings relevant to entrepreneurial decision-making situations are incorporated.

This textbook has been recommended and developed for university courses in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
