Legal Risk Management
All business decisions imply a certain level of risk, be it financial or legal. In the legal domain, risk may take multiple appearances. It can arise from a context of contracts, labour, environment law, penal law, etc.
Risk management does not consist in eliminating all risk, but rather in evaluating, weighting, pondering. Good governance of a business requires foreseeing the impact of the decisions made as well as evaluating the consequences and scope of the risks taken. Appraising legal risks allows for better planning before taking a decision and acting on it.
