ACCT 660 - Enterprise Risk Management

Institution:

Jacksonville University

Subject:

Description:

Prerequisites: ACCT 522 and FIN 534, or permission of the Accounting and Finance Chair. Students will acquire the concepts and techniques available to corporations, non-profit organizations and other organizations to manage enterprise risks, including risk assumption, prevention, diversification, and transfer via insurance and non-insurance market mechanisms. The costs associated with such risks as product liability, environmental impairments, property losses, work-related injuries, and employee benefits (e.g., pensions, health insurance, etc.) affect the daily management of all organizations. Likewise, a fall in demand for its product, a sudden rise in production or financing costs, or a technological failure or destruction of information, can impair the value of the enterprise. Managers who make decisions without appropriate consideration of risk management issues can jeopardize the long-term survival of their organizations.
