Introduction: Risk Management

This week’s lesson deals with an extremely important topic to entrepreneurs, risk management. There are a number of risks that a business owner faces. The first step is to identify these risks and then decide how, or if, they should be dealt with. Many different resources use different risk management processes, but they all basically boil down to these steps:

Identify hazards – what might cause a loss?

Some of the ways in which you might deal with the risks are:

a.Risk reduction – education and tools – like a sprinkler system to control fire damage

b.Risk avoidance – don’t do it – avoid a line of business where the risks are too great

c.Risk transfer – buy insurance

d.Risk assumption – self-insure (be prepared to cover small losses yourself)

Much of the risk we encounter is dealt with via option “C.” The entrepreneur will most likely be wise to buy some types of insurance products to protect them and their families. The interview below with Shawn Aguilar of State Farm Insurance is a great tool to help you assess your own risk situation and see what can be handled via risk transfer (insurance).
