Risk Analysis

Managers are usually happy with ‘Numbers’ not ‘Opinions’
Quantitative Risk Analysis
• So far we have focused on ‘Qualitative Risk Analysis’.
• Intangible Assets
• Measure asset’s fair market value (depreciation!) e.g. Trade Secrets
• Focus on the income producing capability of the intangible asset
• Involve senior management to conduct final valuation
Quantifying the Risk Elements
• Results derived from risk analysis & vulnerability
assessment need to be quantified.
• Fuzzy Logic
• For risks that do not have a proper quantitative probability model, it can
help model the cause-and-effect relationships, assess the degree of risk
exposure and rank the key risks in a consistent way, considering both the
available data and experts’ opinions.
