Risk Dashboard

Increased volatility, lack of liquidity and tighter margins have forced the energy industry to look for more efficient ways to predict and protect earnings. Companies must not simply understand the risks associated with earnings and assets; they must be able to forecast these risks’ effects in order to properly mitigate and manage their impact.

To achieve the most effective enterprise risk program, corporations must identify, understand, monitor, simulate and predict the impact of market and non-market forces on their corporate portfolio. Once the risks-credit, market and operational-are recognized and understood, they can be quantified. Organizations can then examine their portfolio from a capital resource allocation perspective, managing the balance between economic capital and financial liquidity as recommended in the CCRO framework for capital adequacy. Making business decisions from an enterprise view of risk and capital adequacy/resource perspectives greatly enhances an organization’s ability to understand its business and how risks impact earnings and cash flows.

ThotWave’s Risk Dashboard gives businesses the ability to quickly and fully assess earnings, risk, and capital distributions around assets and business units so that enterprises can make more informed decisions that heighten investor confidence.
