3.10 RISK MANAGEMENT<br />

The risk management council carried out activities for detection and re-definition of individual<br />

types of risks that the <strong>Gorenje</strong> <strong>Group</strong> is exposed to.<br />

Three committees operate with the risk management council: business risk committee, financial<br />

risk committee and operation risk committee.<br />

Risk detection has been evaluated by the size of influence on the result and assessment of probability<br />

for the occurrence of influence and exposure to individual risks by additional criteria which has<br />

enabled the preparation of proposals and taking of measures for risk management.<br />

Individual risks were joined in groups and classified into a strategic risk map. The risk management<br />

council directed and co-ordinated the hedging activities and risk reduction to a business reasonable<br />

and acceptable level.<br />

3.10.1 BUSINESS RISK MANAGEMENT<br />

Business risks are classified as risks associated with the ability of provision of short-term and longterm<br />

generation of operating revenue, control of business processes and maintenance of asset<br />

value.<br />

BUSINESS RISKS: external risks; sales risks; purchase risks; product risks; development risks;<br />

human resources risks; property loss risks<br />

External risks are mainly associated with the changes in macroeconomic conditions of operation<br />

in individual key markets. The exposure has been greatly increased due to the beginning of the<br />

global financial crisis, versatility and complexity of business activities. The management board of<br />

the <strong>Gorenje</strong> <strong>Group</strong> has assessed that the exposure to such risks is extremely high in individual<br />

markets.
