| Sample 1. A man jumps out of an airplane without a parachute.
If he is sure to die, is he taking risk?
Sample 2: Which is better, individual decision making or group
decision making? Should decisions be made by individuals who are
then responsible for the consequences, or should decisions reflect
the combined wisdom of groups?
Sample 3: A trader puts on a speculative position. He
has authority to do so, and the position causes no limit
violations. His manager thinks the position will lose money and
orders him to reverse it. The trader fumes that it is unfair
basing his compensation on performance if someone else controls
his book. As a risk manager, do you support the manager or the
trader ... or should you do nothing?
Sample 4: Write your own definition of financial risk
management. What exactly is its purpose within your organization? Be as precise as possible. |
