Frequently asked questions

  • What is a risk engineer in insurance?

    A risk engineer is a trained specialist who works to identify and assess risks specific to types of business and projects, and who then endeavors to help a business avoid or minimize potential negative impacts of those risks. With proper risk engineering guidance, businesses can establish cost-efficient loss-control practices to help protect the organization’s people, property and assets.
  • Why is risk management important?

    Risk management is essential to the success and, in fact, the very survival of any business. Identifying risks, reducing exposures and mitigating potential impacts are vital to a business when making decisions … whether external or internal in nature. Professional risk assessment — ideally performed by a risk engineer — is the first step in addressing current and evolving threats to an organization. Having the right people, required resources, and proper tools and services is key in risk management planning and actions.
