Discussions regarding financial markets and natural disasters often center on risk management, highlighting the extreme losses than can occur. As risk management progresses into companies all over the world, determining the amount of risk present, and adjusting those risks in the best way suited for future objectives must be taken into consideration. Researchers are focusing on ways to calculate and diminish uncertainty, as well as detect, mitigate, and transfer the risk associated with over-industrializing and expansion of companies. Organizations must establish procedures that monitor the uncertainty of their operations. Coca-Cola Enterprises serves as a model by focusing on the prevention aspect of risk management, rather than reacting and responding after natural disasters have occurred.

Coca-Cola Enterprises performs numerous tasks that focus on the prevention of damage due to natural disasters. Rather than reacting and responding after natural disasters have occurred, this enterprise succeeds in collaborating a partnership between financial and natural needs. Coca-Cola assesses its social and environmental risks annually, which include health and wellness trends, adverse weather, and global climate changes (Committed to 2020: Shaping a Sustainable Future in Europe). As John Brown, Director of Risk Management Supply Chain and Technical at Coca-Cola, states, this supply chain strives to prevent any possible dangers that can result from their ongoing expansion. “This approach ensures that risks are identified and managed at the local level, which in itself is true risk management across the enterprise. The sweet spot is where we can identify systemic risks across multiple entities and then apply higher level resources to solve these risks once, instead of multiple times, and with sometimes different approaches”

A “Risk Map,” “Risk Dashboard,” and a list of the “Top 10 Risks” and their corresponding mitigation strategies are maintained to keep the company operational and be able to spring back from disruptions quickly. Various tools are used to assess the risk such as failure mode and effects analysis, fault tree analysis and probability models are also utilized. A Scatterplot tool is used to depict the probability of failure index vs profit at risk index identifies partners that have higher risk of failure and the corresponding financial impact on the profit as shown in figure 3. The company prioritizes the suppliers that have high risk of failure and a high impact on the profit and work their way
Rather, it is centered around comprehension the key risks an organization confronts then going for broke at the best time in the wake of utilizing the most suitable safety measures (Valderrey, 2016). Even in the best of times, in the event that you are to oversee risk successfully, you should make to a great degree decision making ability calls including information and measurements, have an unmistakable feeling of how all the moving parts cooperate, and convey that well.

Producing healthier drinks could potentially get their products back in schools. Researching into cheaper materials as well as environmentally friendly alternatives to plastic would be another recommendation. The main concern for Coca Cola is water supply. Without water Coca Cola would not be able to stay in business. It is recommended for Coca Cola to reduce the amount of water it uses. They have already begun a goal to improve water use. “Our 2020 goal is aggressive and builds on the 21.4% water efficiency improvement we’ve made since 2004. We expect to increasingly assess not just the quantity of the water used to grow our product ingredients, but the impact of that use as well” (Improving,
Business risk management has been a widely crucial tool for firms to include in their operations and its importance cannot be overlooked. In the case of British Petroleum (BP) Gulf of Mexico Oil Spill in 2010, there was negligence and lack in the contingency plan and response of the company to the risks that arose. It became evident in this analysis that BP’s manner of handling the incident had a massive financial implication that ensued negative public perception and company reputation and value.

Coca-Cola has also recently been allocating its resources to sustainability efforts within the company with an emphasis on water stewardship, energy and climate, packaging, and agriculture.

is an assistant professor of finance at St. Edwards University in Austin, Texas. Also, James Kallman specialize in risk management. The purpose of article “Before the Launch” by Bugalla & Kallman (2014) is to explain how ERM aligns with company objects to reduce risks. Senior leader can utilize ERM with strategic planning and tactical planning to improve risk tolerance and risk appetite. Senior leaders design targets and goals using measurements of risk to prepare for circumstance that misaligned from the firm’s objectives. Strategic planning, tactical planning, and ERM aligns a firm’s objectives to the vision, mission, and purpose of a firm based on allocation of resources. The well-planned allocation of resources minimized risk due to parameters that maintain compliance in an event of difficult circumstances. James Kallman (2014) believes that the initial planning is the starting point of risk management. Starting risk management in the planning stage can save resources as Kristina Narvaez (2012) validates in article “The Value of ERM.” According to Kristina Narvaez (2012), Glaxo-Smith-Kline paid $750 million dollar FDA fine for selling contaminated baby ointment and ineffective antidepressant medication (p.1).” The waste of resources could have been provided with Glaxo-Smith-Kline by have a risk management systemic to control risk tolerance and risk appetite.

Risk exposure not only includes legality issues, but also incorporates quality and safety risks, reputation risks, health risks, and mostly importantly, financial risks. The reality is that the above stated risks are interdependent and can have drastic effects on the administration of an organization. The reason risk management is such a daunting task stems from its ambiguous nature (Burke, 2013, p169). Risks are difficult to detect because of the interacting pieces that generate the likelihood of a risky result. Measuring risks also proves to be a seemly convoluted process due to the subjectivity behind the matter. Risks can only be measured as far as the human brain can process the complex parts and contingencies involved. Finally, risk mitigation also poses a problem as finding a solution to an unknown problem is just as difficult as identifying the issue at
Over the years, the Coca Cola company has done a lot for the world in the means of economical and environmental aid.

Breaking into the European market would therefore help Coca-Cola’s sale of their bottled water rise above that of Pepsi’s as Pepsi had no

Also, to save and recycle the usage of water. To defuse further boycotts or demonstrations against their products, they need to set up specific funds to have people cultivated on certain awareness, help fund agricultural products and set up seminars in schools to make people aware of certain information they need to know.
