Abstract

Risk management has outgrown its insurance origins and must become more professional in the present and future harsh economic climate. Britain's Association of Insurance Risk Managers would seem to agree for they are calling for a more professional attitude and better training for the 550 so‐called risk managers in the UK. Their greatest weakness is that, having been recruited from and worked in insurance, they have too limited and sectarian a view of the discipline control and financing of risks.
