Shareholders
They can affect the market price of shares by selling them or they have the power
to remove management.
2 options:
1. Shareholders prefer a steady income from dividends
2. Shareholders are more concerned with long-term capital gains
denial of credit,
higher interest charges or
ultimately putting the company into liquidation
Employees
Employees will be concerned about threats to their job prospects (money,
promotion, benefits and satisfaction) and ultimately threats to the jobs themselves.
If the business fails, the impact on employees will be great.
However if the business performs poorly, the impact on employees may not be so
great if their jobs are not threatened.
Risk assessment
Risk assessment is the process of evaluating the importance of a risk by
making an estimate of two variables:
1. The probability of the risk event being realised
Probability refers to the likelihood of the risk materialising and is expressed
either as a percentage or as a proportion of one (e.g. a 0.5 risk is considered
to be 50% likely).
2. The impact that the risk would have if it were realised
The impact refers to the value of the loss if the risk event were to
materialise.
The estimated values of these two variables can be plotted on a risk assessment
map, where the two axes are impact and probability (see below).

Related risks
Related and correlated
Related risks
These are risks that vary because of the presence of another risk.
This means they do not exist independently and they are likely to rise and
fall in importance along with the related one.
Risk correlation is a particular example of related risk.
Positively Correlated
Risks are positively correlated if one will fall with the reduction of the other
and increase with the rise of the other.
Negatively correlated
