Figure 1. Methods for qualitative risk analysis in an organization
The most preferable, according to the author, in the framework of a qualitative risk
assessment, are the following methods:
• method of expert assessments;
• cost feasibility analysis;
• method of analogies.
The method of expert assessments consists in a survey of qualified specialists from
different areas of activity regarding a specific problem, followed by processing the results using
statistical techniques. It is resorted to when the management of the organization does not have
enough or lacks the necessary amount of information to carry out calculations or comparisons.
Based on experience and knowledge, experts-specialists determine the probability of
occurrence of specific losses, according to their estimates, average values are found, which make
it possible to construct a probability distribution curve. The method of expert assessments has a
number of advantages: it makes it possible in a short time and with the least labor and financial
costs to obtain the necessary information for making a managerial decision. In this case, the
evaluation can be carried out before determining the effectiveness of the project. However, the
disadvantage of this method is the difficulty of attracting independent experts and the
subjectivity of assessments.
Expert assessments of the risk level can be considered as consulting support in
substantiating a management decision. The final decision on the optimal level of risk in the
organization, using their professional skills and competencies, is made by the risk manager, who
is personally responsible for them.
Expert risk assessment methods include decision-making based on heuristics, that is, the
use of a set of logical techniques and methodological rules for finding the truth. In the process of
risk management, heuristic research methods are actively used, which can be structured
according to the level of the entrepreneur's opportunity in terms of the size of equity capital, as
well as depending on the conditions and direction of investment.
Cost feasibility analysis allows to determine the break-even point, that is, such a volume of
production at which income covers only expenses, and the organization receives zero profit. It is
advisable to determine the minimum possible volume of production in case of a decrease in
output volumes associated with a drop in demand for manufactured products, a decrease in the
volume of supplies, the emergence of competitors offering new or similar products, and for other
reasons.
Methods for qualitative risk analysis in an organization involve the allocation of four main
stages of assessment:
Stage 1 - Identification of areas of potential risk, which consists in compiling a list of
operations, the implementation of which does not guarantee a positive result.
