In today’s highly deregulated and globalized economy almost all companies are facing fi erce challenges due to intensifi ed competition at market place. So, an effective risk management has become the key to the survival of a fi rm. It ensures that risk remains within an acceptable range. Therefore, a business fi rm cannot successfully defi ne its objectives without identifying risks and managing the risks within its risk appetites.
