How Risk Analysis Works
Share On FacebookShare On TwitterShare On LinkedinShare On RedditShare On Email

Many traders always ask how risk analysis works. A risk analyst starts by recognizing what could hypothetically go wrong. These negatives must be weighed against a probability metric that measured the likelihood of the event occurring. Finally, risk analysis attempts to estimate the extent of the impact that will be made if the event happens. Almost all types of large businesses require a minimum sort of risk analysis. All investments involve some degree of risk. In finance, risk refers to the degree of potential financial loss inherent in an investment decision.

In general, as investment risks increase, investors look for higher returns to reward themselves for taking these risks. Every saving and investment product has different risks and returns. Some of the differences are how readily investors can get their money when they need it. How fast their money will grow and how safe their money will be. It is important to understand that risk analysis allows professionals to identify and mitigate risks, but not avoid them. Risk analysis can be quantitative or qualitative.

How Risk Analysis Works: Quantitative Risk Analysis

The quantitative risk analysis model is built using simulation or deterministic statistics to assign numerical values to risk. Inputs that are mostly assumptions and random variables are fed into a risk model. For any given range of input, the model produces a range of output or outcomes. The model’s output is analyzed using graphs, scenario analysis, or sensitivity analysis by risk managers to make decisions to lessen and deal with risks. A Monte Carlo simulation can be used to generate a range of possible outcomes of a decision made or action taken.

The simulation is a quantitative technique that estimates results for the random input variables frequently, using a different set of input values each time. Each input result is recorded and the final results of the models become the probability distribution for all possible results. The outcomes can be summarized on a distribution graph showing some of the measures of central tendency such as the mean and median. Also evaluating the variability of the data through standard deviation and variance. The results can also be assessed using risk management tools such as scenario analysis and sensitivity tables. Scenario analysis shows the best, middle, and worst of any event. Separating the different outcomes from the best to the worst and displaying a reasonable spread of insight for a risk manager.

How Risk Analysis Works: Qualitative Risk Analysis

Qualitative risk analysis is an analytical method that does not recognize and evaluate risks with numerical and quantitative ratings. Qualitative analysis involves a written definition of the reservations and fears. An evaluation of the extent of the impact if the risk occurs. It also countermeasures a plan in the case of a negative event happens. A firm that wants to evaluate the impact of a security breach on its servers may use a qualitative risk technique to help prepare it for any lost income that may occur from a data breach. Some examples of this approach are SWOT analysis, cause and effect diagrams, decision matrix, and game theory.

 SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis is an outline used to evaluate a company’s competitive position to develop strategic planning. SWOT analysis calculates internal and external factors. It also looks at current and future potential issues as well. A SWOT analysis is designed to facilitate an accurate, fact-based, data-driven look at the strengths and weaknesses of an organization. The organization needs to keep the analysis accurate by avoiding gray areas and instead focusing on real-life circumstances. Companies should use SWOT as a guide and not necessarily as a treatment.

Game theory is a theoretical framework regarding social situations among competing players. To some degree, game theory is the ideal decision-making of independent and competing actors in a strategic setting. Decision Matrix Analysis is a useful technique to use for making a decision. It’s mostly powerful where you have several good alternatives to choose from, and many different factors to take into account. This makes it a great technique to use in almost any significant decision where there isn’t a clear preferred option.

A cause-and-effect diagram examines why something occurred or might occur by organizing potential causes into smaller categories. It can also be useful for showing relationships between contributing factors. One of the Seven Basic Tools of Quality is often referred to as a fishbone diagram or Ishikawa diagram. One of the reasons cause & effect diagrams are also called fishbone diagrams is because the completed diagram ends up looking like a fish’s skeleton with the fish head to the right of the diagram and the bones branching off behind it to the left.

Values at Risk

Values at risk is a statistic that measures and quantifies the level of financial risk within a firm, portfolio, or position over a detailed time frame. This metric is most frequently used by investment and commercial banks to determine the extent and occurrence ratio of potential losses in their institutional portfolios. Risk managers use values at risk to measure and control the level of risk exposure. You can apply values at risk calculations to specific positions, whole portfolios or to measure firm-wide risk exposure.

Values at risk are calculated by shifting historical returns from worst to best with the assumption that returns will be repeated. Values at risk don’t provide analysts with absolute certainty; it’s an estimate based on probabilities. The probability gets higher if you consider the higher returns and only consider the worst returns. Risk is a probabilistic measure, so it can never tell you for sure what your exact risk exposure is at a given time. It can only tell you what the distribution of possible losses is likely to be if and when they occur. There are also no standard methods for calculating and analyzing risk. Even values at risk can have numerous ways of approaching the task.
