Based on the guidance in last week’s Discussion Question, select one company from the New York Stock ExchangeLinks to an external site. or NASDAQLinks to an external site. and post a link to its Investor Relations page.
- Briefly explain why you selected this company. Who their main competitors are and their relative position in the market. For example, are they an established leader or are they a newcomer seeking to disrupt the market?
- Consider how the principles of risk management and establishing a robust control environment are being applied to mitigate risks your chosen company faces. In your response, address the following:
- What are the major strategic and financial risks threatening the organization's objectives, growth, and stability?
- What risk-management strategies and control mechanisms are already in place to mitigate these risks?
- Identify one additional (plausible) risk event that could, if it were to occur, threaten the company’s strategy and moat strength.
- What steps could be taken to mitigate that risk?
Hint: Review the “Risk Factors” section of the most recent 10K or 10Q reports to find this information.
