Individual Report on a Real-World Risk Management Failure

Since 1990s, both financial and non -financial sectors has witnessed several risk management failures leading up to serious consequences and even corporate failures. As a case report, students are expected to discuss one incidence of risk management failure either for a financial or non -financial firm that you find interesting and had a significant impact on the market and stakeholders (equity holders / debtholders / regulators / depositors etc.). Overall, the incidence of risk management failure discussed / reported should have far-reaching consequences and a direct impact on the financial markets and market participants.

In the individual report, students must discuss the causes/circumstances that led to the incident, followed by the losses the firm and the stakeholder in the firm had to incur because of the risk management failure. Finally, you need to conclude with your understanding of the incident’s effect, and how (if possible) it could have been averted if checks and balances were implemented in time.

The report should not exceed 2000 words (+/ -10%). Report should at least include:

. Background of the firm

. Incidence of the risk management failure

. Outcome of the failure and its impact on different stakeholders in the firm

. Self-reflection / Personal take on the case discussed
