Financial Risks

Companies, housing corporations, hospitals, etc. are often confronted with various financial risks, such as currency, interest, and credit risks. These not only affect the results and growth of an enterprise but can also jeopardize its existence. Both members of the board of directors and many managers and policymakers are concerned with the question of whether these risks can be better managed and at what price. There is, therefore, a great need for knowledge and insight into how financial risk management can positively influence the value and expected cash flows of an organization. A wide range of financial instruments (derivative products or derivatives) plays an important role in this. One must also know which derivative belongs to which type of risk and when the use of derivatives leads to speculation. Finally, what other possibilities, such as diversification of business activities or buying/selling in other currencies, are used to manage financial risks.
