Abstract:

Petroleum Transportation Systems (PTSs) have a significant impact on the flow of crude oil within a Petroleum Supply Chain (PSC), due to the great demand on this natural product. Such systems are used for safe movement of crude and/or refined products from starting points (i.e. production sites or storage tanks), to their final destinations, via land or sea transportation. PTSs are vulnerable to several risks because they often operate in a dynamic environment. Due to this environment, many potential risks and uncertainties are involved. Not only having a direct effect on the product flow with

This research is carried out to improve Human Reliability Analysis (HRA) in oil tanker operations in general, to extend and enhance in specific Cognitive Reliability and Error Analysis Method (CREAM), with the aim of reducing human error and thus subsequently preventing oil tanker spills. It is concentrated on oil tanker operations to address the limitation of availability of human reliability data in the maritime domain. The continual occurrence of oil tanker spills, which was substantiated with analysis of historical data of oil tanker incidents/accidents from 1970 to 2008, provides a judici

Abstract:

In recent years, numerous high tech companies have developed and used technology roadmaps when making their investment decisions. Jay Paap has proposed the Customer Focused Technology Planning (CFTP) framework to draw future technology roadmaps. However, the CFTP framework does not include risk assessment as a critical factor in decision making. The problem addressed in this quantitative study was that high tech companies are either losing money or getting a much smaller than expected return on investment when making technology investment decisions.

Abstract:

As transmission networks are getting older and as their components are reaching their life span’s end, the number of maintenance outages for equipments reparation or replacement is destined to gradually increase in the coming years. These outages weaken system’s security and lead to highstress situations that often do not comply with N-k operation rules. Thus in-depth risk analysis have to be performed in those cases, to ensure system’s smooth operation and optimal maintenance planning. It requires a comprehensive knowledge of contingencies consequences on system and society, but also refined

Abstract:

The Basel II capital adequacy framework constitutes a very comprehensive regulatory approach to risk assessment in banks. A special feature of this new accord is that it is not only targeting banks' financial risk exposures in terms of credit risks and market risks, the scope has been widened to also explicitly incorporate banks' exposure to operational risks in the capital adequacy requirement. For banks this novelty means a major change. Unless they choose to use the highly unsophisticated basic indicator approach or the standardized approach proposed in the new Basel accord, it will put sig

Abstract:

In the MIRMAP project, that was completed earlier this year, an improved method for doing risk analysis to support decision-making in operation was developed. The analysis is focused the activities that are taking place in the plant and how the risk level fluctuates with activity level. The individual activities and how they influence the risk is used as input to the risk model. The Risk Barometer is another approach to calculating risk to provide support to decision-making in operation. This is based on using the existing QRA, carefully selecting relevant parameters from the QRA and updating

Abstract:

Basel II provides banks with four options that may be used to calculate regulatory capital for operational risk. Each of these options (except the most basic approach) requires an underlying risk measurement and management system, with increasing complexity and more refined capital calculations under the more advanced approaches. Approaches available are BIA, TSA, ASA and AMA. The most advanced and complex option under Basel II is the AMA. This approach allows a bank to calculate its regulatory and economic capital requirements (using internal models) based on internal risk variables and profi

With the financial crisis of 2008 and more retirement funds and insurance companies entering the hedge fund industry, the safety of investor assets has become vital.

The issues that underlie the operational risk factors relate to valuation of the fund’s assets and liabilities. Unless certain valuation practices become more widespread, hedge funds face a potential crisis of confidence with institutional and high net worth investors (Kundro and Feffer, 2002:42).

As a result it is compulsory for financial institutions to reserve capital for the operational risk exposures inherent in their business activities.

With the universal existence of uncertainty, borrowers and lenders have to make decisions based on convention and experience. With regard to the nature of decisi

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2008.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The budgeting process is an integral part of the annual business cycle of most organisations. The budget consists of numerous uncertain inputs, which are frequently used to produce a single EBIT figure. This implies that there is a risk of not achieving the budget that is not quantified and apparent from the prepared budget. In this report, the differences between the budgets of two business units of Exxaro Resources were analysed to gain a better understanding of the information hidden beyond the figures quoted on the surface.

Abstract:

Hedge funds report performance information voluntarily. When they stop reporting they are transferred from the "live" pool of funds to the "defunct" pool. Consequently, liquidated funds constitute a subset of the defunct pool. I present models of hedge fund survival, attrition, and survivorship bias based on liquidation alone. This refines estimates of predictor variables in models of survival, leads to attrition rates of hedge funds to be roughly one half those previously thought, and produces larger estimates of survivorship bias. Survival models based on liquidated funds only, lead to an in

Abstract:

This thesis aims to show that in some applications the appropriate selection of a small number of available items can be beneficial with respect to the use of all available items. In particular, we focus on portfolio selection and on operational risk management and we use operations research techniques to identify the few important elements that are needed in both cases. In the first part of this work - based on an article published in Economics Bulletin [Cesarone et al (2016)], we show that, for several portfolio selection models, the best portfolio which uses only a limited number of assets
