During economic instability it is particularly important to manage risks effectively. Political and economic risks, currency fluctuations and many other factors have a significant impact on companies’ operations. It is therefore necessary now to quickly develop and implement new interventions and approaches to the management of these or other types of risks in order to minimize potential loss of business. For two days experts of the world’s top companies will present real-world examples of innovative approaches to risk management from different business areas using up-to-date software products. There will also be additional options for the practical application of the methods used presented at the conference.
