Case Study(Risk Management)
Instructor
Saito, Makoto; Takaoka, Makoto; and Adachi, Naoto
Schedule
Winter Semester; Thu.; Time slot #5
Description
Because enterprise risks involved in company activities, including catastrophic
risks, environmental risks, and legal risks, become more and more complicated,
and may incur large losses on corporate cash flows, private companies
are forced to hand such risks properly to protect their corporate value.
In addition, private companies need to coordinate their activities with
various kinds of interests of not only their stakeholders, but also the
whole society in general.
This seminar class will address two issues: (1) in which kinds of conditions,
the risks involved in corporate activities would be controllable, manageable,
and accountable, (2) which kind of policy frameworks would improve incentives
for private companies to control and finance such enterprise risks. For
this purpose, this course attempts to bring up experts as well as researchers
in both private and public sectors, who have advanced knowledge and abilities
concerning risk management, and related policy issues associated with
disaster, environmental, and liability risks, and create opportunities
to discuss the above two issues among them and course attendants. Each
attendant is required to submit one term paper based on a particular case
of risk management.
Note: This class is limited to the students who have already finished
"Risk Management and Public Policy" offered in the summer semester
of 2008.
