2. Analytical Skills
The cornerstone of risk management is analyzing
risks, evaluating their potential effects and
balancing them against the companys overall risk
appetite. Many risk managers will make the
mistake of including a lot of data in their
reports without proper analysis. As a result,
readers of these reports will only be confused
and overwhelmed by the information. Risk managers
should place focus on the analysis, with the
referenced data added to the appendix. Insightful
and valuable analyses do not necessarily have to
include numbers.
