Abstract: Abstract With the globalization of the knowledge economy, knowledge management appears especially important for firms, and has been applied in more and more companies. Knowledge resource has become the key point of the firm’s core competence, while knowledge loss is the problem that can be easily ignored, and has a great effect on firms. In this paper, we define the concept of knowledge loss, the main risks of the firm faced in knowledge loss at first, and then analyze the causes of firm knowledge loss from the internal factors and the external factors. The internal factors include employee turnover, internal staff changes, performance evaluation and salary structure. The external factors consist of the external imitation, corporate strategic alliance and social environment. And finally we put forward corresponding risk control strategies.
