Risks and Contingencies Dr. Stan Abraham MHR 423 Spring 2005

Some Typical Risks Company has no operating history Owners have no experience running a company A key member of the founding team leaves Initial capital needs may be underestimated Needed financing may not be forthcoming Revenues may be overstated Competitive retaliation may be underestimated An optimal location may be impossible to obtain The economy’s turnaround may be delayed

Contingencies For each risk, state how the company would deal with it if it were to happen, or how it would limit the adverse impact of the risk A business plan gets low marks for not acknowledging that it faces certain risks –It also gets low marks for not having thought through how it would deal with those risks Don’t “invent” risks – include only those that are real

Typical Format Group the risk and contingency in pairs –For each risk (usually a sentence), say what the company would do if it happened (usually a paragraph) –Choose and stick to a consistent format Typically takes up 2-4 pages double-spaced
