Making Risk Measures Agree with Accounting 100%

2006-12-26 05:27:00 by Jomni in Risk Management Quant
 
In my consulting experience, there are clients that use risk software to compliment financial reporting (accounting). Instead of being used solely by the risk department, even financial controllers use it.

IT risk management is a nebulous topic at best. There are many different ideas as to what risk means and how it should to be applied within an IT organization.
