Disarming the Value Killers

Risk management has become an area of significant concern for numerous companies in today’s volatile marketplace. However, a number of executives are still grappling with what needs to be done to protect their organizations.

A logical starting point is to gain a better understanding of the true risks facing companies. To accomplish this, Deloitte & Touche LLP and Deloitte Research, a part of Deloitte Services LP, analyzed the possible causes of major loss of share value experienced by hundreds of the largest international companies over the last 10 years. Some of the results were expected, such as the major negative impact of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Yet other results yielded some surprises, which have been compiled into a new Deloitte Research white paper, “Disarming the Value Killers.”

The research found that risks may lurk in unexpected places, and that certain events can have such devastating effects that many organizations never recover from the losses. In the paper, Deloitte identifies which factors potentially became “value killers” and explains what might be done to address such threats.
