Enterprise and Project Risk

Colin White and Miao Fan

Chapter 10 in Risk and Foreign Direct Investment, 2006, pp 168-186 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The final chapter in this section returns to the enterprise level and to the components/sub-components of enterprise risk, and through enterprise risk to project risk. The focus of any decision maker is the total risk which confronts the enterprise and which is relevant to the investment decision under analysis. Any enterprise in making an investment decision is faced by two different kinds of risk, the element of generic or systematic risk filtered from higher levels, considered in the previous two chapters, and the element of risk specific to the enterprise. Whatever the exact source the broader types of risk impinge on the enterprise or project in highly specific ways.
