Industrial and commercial enterprises today face a wide range of different risks. These risks arise in various areas, such as the strategic direction of the company, the development of new products, or the introduction of new production methods and business processes. External influences such as regulatory requirements, increasing pressure on prices, quality, and competition, shorter and more flexible delivery times, or the reduction of product life cycles heighten these risks for companies. Therefore, only with the help of an effective and efficient risk management system can companies maintain and expand their competitiveness in the long term. The biggest challenge is to design the risk management system in such a way that significant risks are identified early and either consciously accepted or mitigated.
