The Risk Forum was established in 2004 at the London School of Economics in order to bring together individuals and their organisations to provide a transdisciplinary community of interest in “risk”. Now it is operating as an independent organisation, still based in London and infact still working with academics at LSE.
We are academics, actuaries, economists, lawyers, treasurers, insurers and of course risk professionals.
We are interested in appetite for risk to zoonosis, explore the nature of risk,and how to manage both the hazards and the opportunities.
We network and associate with others across the whole spectrum and universe of “risk”.
In association with the London School of Economics, Cass Business School, South Bank University in London and a global network of academics and risk practitioners.
ANALYSIS & COMMENTS

Today’s organisations operate in the rapidly changing international environment in which risk is both a challenge and an opportunity. The future success of these organisations rests upon taking risks and therefore a continuous development of understanding is required. To identify, assess and manage risk in this dynamic environment requires rigorous, intensive analysis and broad awareness of emergent issues and trends. Performing this analysis and creating this awareness demands a constantly evolving knowledge base. This knowledge base is sustained and enriched by ideas that come from outside of the organisation.
