ABSTRACT

Chapter 4 is devoted to the identification of business risks of dominant importance during the unprecedented crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. These risks are discussed, divided into the following groups: (1) financial risks (liquidity risk, insurance risk, price risk, credit risk), (2) organizational risks (legal risk, personnel risk), (3) strategic risks (business continuity risk, reputational risk, investment risk), (4) global risks (global supply chain risk, technological risk). From this chapter, the reader will learn more about these types of risk that proved to be particularly relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic. The presentation of these risks was facilitated by an analysis of recent scientific publications and numerous analytical reports prepared by various specialist organizations, especially global consulting firms.
