Risk Management for Enterprises and Individuals

In his novel A Tale of Two Cities, set during the French Revolution of the late eighteenth century, Charles Dickens wrote, “It was the best of times; it was the worst of times.” Dickens may have been premature, since the same might well be said now, at the beginning of the twenty-first century. When we think of large risks, we often think in terms of natural hazards such as hurricanes, ear…
