Arthur D Little survey
From Barings and NatWest to Eurotunnel and Townsend Thorensen, companies all over the world are demonstrating the deeply damaging effects of not assessing and controlling risk properly. Only half the companies in a recent Arthur D Little survey of risk management policies and practices are satisfied with their current risk management efforts. Some companies don’t even know whether their efforts are effective or not: in several cases, Arthur D Little received different estimates of the number of major incidents from different people in the same organisation.
