Risk Management
Risk Standards
The Australian/New Zealand Standard for Risk Management was the world’s first risk management standard. The Standard provides a consistent approach to risk management and its terminology, and in doing so provides a generic framework to establish a risk management process in an organisation http://www.riskmanagement.com.au/
Here’s an overview of risk management standards http://www.risk.biz/standards.html
