Abstract:
The present article deals with the management of business risk. Business risk is fundamental to the long term success of a company and the achievement of its goals. Risks can be classified in various ways. There are basic categories of risk such as systemic risk, market risk, production risk, etc. Enterprises can substantially eliminate a certain part of the risk, although some risks cannot be controlled by the company. The financial crisis has had a major impact on the success of firms. This crisis was due to the mortgage crisis in the U.S. In order to verify the relevance of the chosen measures for crisis management, a survey has been carried out in the Czech Republic. Selected results of this research are presented in the article.
