Systems at Risk

Taking Systemic Risk Seriously

risk of damage to ecosystems

And then, the systemic risks.

This is a systemic risk, systemic shock.

Financing through the banking system also involves similar risks.

It also believed that the risks from proliferation of weapons of mass destruction could not be dissociated from the risks from proliferation of their delivery systems.

This person will oversee the operations risk and compliance and information systems.

Portfolio risk analysis and performance attribution system ( 875,000)

While studies are under way to apply space technology to establish safety systems, such as the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS), consideration is given also to emerging risk and danger as a result of expanding space activities, such as the risk of the use of nuclear power sources in outer space.

(c) To review the systems of internal control and risk management and compliance with those systems and with policies and regulations

While studies are under way to apply space technology to establish safety and early warning systems, such as the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) and early warning systems for the reduction of natural disasters, consideration is given also to emerging risk and danger as a result of expanding space activities, such as the risk of the use of nuclear power sources in outer space.

The connection between financial risk and asset price swings emerges from the use of a new approach Imperfect Knowledge Economics (IKE) to understanding risk and fluctuations in asset markets. This approach implies that more can be done to reduce systemic risk, beyond reforming how risk is measured and capital buffers determined.

But risks many of them systemic, and many of them big remain. Unfortunately, the clearinghouse structure obscures them.

(b) To ensure effective risk mitigation through the establishment of a coordinated security threat and risk assessment mechanism within the framework of a common system wide methodology

(g) The achievement of concrete agreed measures to reduce further the operational status of non strategic nuclear weapons systems so as to reduce the risk of use of non strategic nuclear weapons

An audit report was not a management scorecard. Rather, it acted as an early warning system that identified and assessed potential risks.

(b) To ensure effective risk mitigation through the establishment of a coordinated security threat and risk assessment mechanism within the framework of a common system wide methodology

Many other ecosystems on Earth are in real, real danger.

The system will be fed by multiple data sources and will allow the application of suitable risk and performance models for all asset classes, as well as stressing scenarios.

We reaffirm the vital role of the United Nations system in disaster risk reduction.

The system application will allow the Service to create multiple investment scenarios, weighing risks and multiple derivations.

The risk of illicit acquisition of existing systems must be further reduced through improvements to the security of stockpiles, the destruction of surplus stocks, the effective control of the legal trade and the elimination of the illicit trade.

A national risk assessment system was evolving in India to minimize the harmful effects of hazardous events.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) were used to perform spatial analyses and to produce risk maps in all of those projects.

The black swan metaphor suggests that these events reflect difficulty in correctly assessing risks in complex systems.

102. In the military sector, the benefits of system connectivity and interoperability have led to the recognition that security risk management strategies must be adopted in preference to risk avoidance strategies.

Besides, if the steps necessary to make the system operational are not completed, it may be risky to depend upon a partially developed system.

In view of the risk of non State actors acquiring weapons delivery systems, NATO had undertaken technical work to respond to the proliferation of such systems and their potential use by terrorists.

23. Takes note of the report of the Secretary General on the result of the Global Survey of Early Warning Systems,A 62 340. encourages Member States to integrate early warning systems into their national disaster risk reduction strategies and plans, and invites the international community to support the secretariat of the International Strategy for Disaster Reduction in its role in facilitating the development of early warning systems

The chief will be responsible for risk control of the Fund's investments as a whole in terms of portfolio risk, operational risk and compliance risk, and will plan and perform the oversight of performance measurement, investment risk analysis and operational risk analysis, including risk arising from sub adviser and service provider relationships.

Well, you'll remember that to operate my system completely free of risk a stake of 100,000 is required.

The implementation schedule is very ambitious, and to limit the risks of failure the completion date of the implementation of the system had to be postponed, until the third quarter of the year 2000.

New developments include partnerships in the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to promote disaster risk reduction and to design subregional common policies on disaster risk reduction.

New Opportunities, Same Risks in Central Africa

The cost of building all of those systems probably exceeded the amount of risk capital, so that only a few were likely to be built.

(c) Pilot studies in different desertification risk areas should be encouraged for the purpose of validating EWSs.

Financial firms thus need strong internal risk measurement and control systems to ensure that the sum of the activities of their managers individually does not expose the firm as a whole to excessive risk.

She risks a lot and she's terrified.

(c) Development of a proposal for a pilot study comparing the use of desertification EWSs in selected risk areas.

They aid in the placement and protective shielding design of critical subsystems and components, as well as in the system design of large communication satellite constellations.

Working in conjunction with risk management software, the sensor system was reducing the risk of potential environmental contamination from hydrocarbon spillage.

The project provides an integrated framework for strengthening early warning systems in the region, recognizing the need to develop the tsunami early warning system within the context of multiple hazards, disaster management capacities and risk reduction.

The 10 year implementation plan recognizes disasters as one of the main areas that would benefit from such a coordination effort, contributing to reducing loss of life and property from natural and human induced disasters.
