SECTORAL RISK INDEX DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
The aim of the Sectoral Risk Index Project carried out in cooperation with the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce and GRC Management is to create risk inventories of 11 sectors for the member companies of the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce, and to produce risk scores for companies and to publish sectoral risk reports every 3 months.
Sectoral Risk Index; At sectoral scale, sectoral risk index is an indication of the determination of the risks that the relevant sectors may be exposed to and how these risks may affect the sectors in terms of both impact and probability when they occur in the future.
The project started in January, 2021, and Sectoral Risk Inventories are at the stage of preparation. In the preparation of the Sectoral Risk Inventories, support is received from the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce and GRC Management teams, as well as from the committee members affiliated to the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce and from the faculty members from Istanbul Commerce University. Within the scope of the project, Risk Reports, the first of which will be published in July, will be published specific to 10 different sectors and general risk reports.
The main goal of the project is to define and evaluate the key risks of the sectors within the Istanbul Chamber of Commerce, as well as to guide the relevant managers in the formulation and updating of their corporate strategies.
About Risk Management
Necessity of risk management systems are increasing every day. The size of the businesses does not affect that necessity. However, regardless of the scale of the enterprise, the basic areas required by the business senior management and the risk management practices are parallel in application.
In particular, the disruption of business continuity during the pandemic process, volume-turnover losses in service-oriented sectors such as tourism and transportation, and traditional problem areas of the Turkish economy have recently brought risk management to the fore.
