2 The risk committee at Southern Continents Company (SCC) met to discuss a report by its risk manager, StephanieField. The report focused on a number of risks that applied to a chemicals factory recently acquired by SCC in anothercountry, Southland. She explained that the new risks related to the security of the factory in Southland in respect ofburglary, to the supply of one of the key raw materials that experienced fluctuations in world supply and also anenvironmental risk. The environmental risk, Stephanie explained, was to do with the possibility of poisonousemissions from the Southland factory.The SCC chief executive, Choo Wang, who chaired the risk committee, said that the Southland factory was importantto him for two reasons. First, he said it was strategically important to the company. Second, it was important becausehis own bonuses depended upon it. He said that because he had personally negotiated the purchase of the Southlandfactory, the remunerations committee had included a performance bonus on his salary based on the success of theSouthland investment. He told Stephanie that a performance-related bonus was payable when and if the factoryachieved a certain level of output that Choo considered to be ambitious. ‘I don’t get any bonus at all until we reacha high level of output from the factory,’ he said. ‘So I don’t care what the risks are, we will have to manage them.’Stephanie explained that one of her main concerns arose because the employees at the factory in Southland were notaware of the importance of risk management to SCC. She said that the former owner of the factory paid less attentionto risk issues and so the staff were not as aware of risk as Stephanie would like them to be. ‘I would like to get riskawareness embedded in the culture at the Southland factory,’ she said.Choo Wang said that he knew from Stephanie’s report what the risks were, but that he wanted somebody to explainto him what strategies SCC could use to manage the risks.Required:(a) Describe four strategies that can be used to manage risk and identify, with reasons, an appropriate strategyfor each of the three risks mentioned in the case.

共用题干Most Adults in US Have Low Risk of Heart DiseaseMore than 80 percent of US adults have a less than 10-percent risk of developing heart disease in the next 10 years,according to a report in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.Just 3 percent have a risk that exceeds 20 percent."I hope that these numbers will give physicians,researchers,health policy analysts,and others a better idea of how coronary heart disease is distributed in the US population,"lead author Dr.Earl S.Ford,from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta,said in a statement.The findings are based on analysis of data from 13,769 subjects,between 20 and 79 years of age,who narticipated in the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 1988 to 1994.Overall,82 percent of adults had a risk of less than 10 percent,15 percent had a risk that fell between 10 to 20 percent,and 3 percent had a risk above 20 percent.The proportion of subjects in the highest risk group increased with advancing age,and men were more likely than women to be in this group.By contrast,race or ethnicity had little effect on risk distributions.Although the report suggests that most adults have a low 10-year risk of heart disease,a large proportion have ahigh or immediate risk,Dr.Daniel S.Berman,from Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles,and Dr.Nathan D.Wong,from the University of California at Irvine,note in a related editorial.Aggressive treatment measures and public health strategies are needed to shift the overall population risk downward,they add.

共用题干第一篇UlcersEven though ulcers appear to run in families,lifestyle plays more of a role than genetic （基因的）factors in causing the illness, according to a report in the April 13th issue of Journal of Internal Medicine. In particular,smoking and stress in men and the regular use of pain-releasing medicines in women were linked with an increased risk of developing an ulcer（溃疡）.Overall,61% of ulcer risk appears to be due to environmental factors,such as smoking,and the remaining 39% is due to genes,according to Dr. lsmo Raiha of the University of Turkey and colleagues at the University of Helsinki,Finland.Some researchers had suggested that families may spread Helicobacteria pyloni（幽门螺旋菌）, the bacteria（细菌）that can cause ulcers. However, the new study suggests this is unlikely,according to the report.Raiha and colleagues studied data from more than 13,000 pairs of twins to examine the roles of genetic and environmental factors in the origin of ulcer. Both twins were more likely to develop an ulcer if the pain were genetically the same as compared with a pair of fraternal（由两受精卵发育而成的）twins , suggesting that there must be some genetic susceptibility（敏感性）to ulcer development.However,the risk was no greater in twins living together compared with twins living apart,suggesting that shared exposure to H.pyloni was not to blame." Environmental effects were not due to factons shared by family members,and they were related to smoking and stress in men and the use of pain-releasing medicines in women,"the authors write in their report. 61% of ulcer risk seems to be caused byA:unknown factors. B:economic factors.C:environmental factors. D:genetic factors.

共用题干Cigars Instead?Smoking one or two cigars a day doubles the risk of cancers of the lip,tongue,mouth,and throat,according to a government study.Daily cigars also increase the risk of lung cancer and cancer of the esophagus,and increase the risk of cancer of the larynx(voice box)sixfold,say researchers at the National Cancer Institu- te in Bethesda,Maryland. In addition,the report revealed that smoking three or four cigars a day increased the risk of oral cancer to 8.5 times the risk for nonsmokers and the risk of esophageal cancer by four times the risk of nonsmokers.The health effects of smoking cigars is one of eight sections of the article"Cigars:HealthEffects and Trends".The researchers report that,compared with a cigarette,a large cigar emits up to 90 times as much carcinogenic tobacco-specific nitrosamines."This article provides clear and invaluable information about the disturbing increase in cigar use and the significant public health consequences for the country,"said Dr. Richard Klausner, director of the National Cancer Institute,in a statement."The data are clear-the harmful substances and carcinogens in cigar smoke,like cigarettes,are associated with the increased risks of several kinds of cancers as well as heart and lung diseases,"he added."In other words,cigars are not safe alternatives to cigarettes and may be addictive.""To those individuals who may be thinking about smoking cigars,our advice is-don't. To those currently smoking cigars,quitting is the only way to eliminate completely the cancer,heart and lung disease risks,"warned Klausner.According to a National Cancer Institute press release,there haven't been any studies on the health effects on nonsmokers at cigar social events,but“... a significant body of evidence clearly demonstrates an increased lung cancer risk from secondhand smoke."
