About this title

Synopsis

The goal of risk management isn’t to eliminate risk. It’s to understand it. Strategic risk management isn’t just about how, it’s about why.

In The Upside of Risk, author Michael Berman shows readers why risk management and strategic planning are inseparable. Building off research, historical examples, and the most current enterprise risk management framework, he shows why good risk management isn’t about risk avoidance. It’s about risk awareness, which empowers financial institutions to be prepared, protected, and positioned for opportunities.

Underlining his message with lessons learned from the financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic, Berman coaches readers to critically and systematically evaluate the assumptions propelling the decision-making process. From governance and culture to risk assessments and setting measurable strategy goals and objectives, he demonstrates why the most successful financial institutions approach risk management with curiosity and an open mind, leveraging their discoveries to make smarter decisions that support long-term strategic goals.

Thoughtful and accessible, The Upside of Risk weaves together risk management theory and practical advice to deliver actionable takeaways for transforming risk management into a strategic advantage. It’s a must-read for anyone in the banking industry who cares about creating value and building resilient institutions.
