This article describes the importance of the process management in a given institution (first of all financial institution), especially in area of the risk reduction. The correct implementation of the process approach in given institution involves to take up several performances. Firstly identification of all processes in the institution, this means building the process map. Next the institution should establish for a given process: its income and outcome, the purpose and the effect (product, service) strictly connected with it, the process sources (staff, things) and finally risks identified in the process. In the author's opinion every process can be described as the mathematical function. Generally speaking the established process map should facilitate to run effectively the risk management. Moreover the Key Risk Indicators (KRI), which are systematically calculated, can support the objectivity of the risk assessment in the range of the risk management. Simultaneously the risk map can be also useful in order to conduct: the cost budgeting, the internal control and internal audit activity, the implementation of new IT softwares, the analysis of effectiveness and efficiency of the organizational framework and the human resources, the analysis of internal procedures etc. Few central banks in Western Europe implemented already the process maps in question. In the range of this maps, especially in the range of the identified processes, the levels of risk were estimated and reduced. As far as the National Bank of Poland (NBP) is concerned, this bank implemented in 2005 the unique 3-level risk management system. The NBP is permanently improving this system at present.

Modern information systems are often complex, heterogeneous and dynamic. Technological progress and widespread use of information systems in business generate dependencies that cause the increase of diversity, complexity, uncertainty and the amount of risk factors. Therefore risk management, focusing on finding the optimal relationship between the risks and the cost of security issues, becomes increasingly important. Risk cannot be completely avoided, so it must be properly managed. Therefore organizations should implement standards, guidelines and best practices. The article presents selected standards concerning a very rapidly developing area which is information security risk management in an organization.

In the paper the authors tried to estimate the implications and consequences of 'Basel II' for Slovenian banking sector just before its implementation. Their survey indicates that a lot of the 'Basel II' impacts are actually unclear to the banks and even to the regulator. The impact on individual institutions will be driven by their level of sophistication in risk management. Banks claim that implementation of the International Rating Based (IRB) approach requires large initial investments in risk management technologies from the cost perspective as well from the knowledge and data gathering. This could deter small banks from choosing the IRB approach.

The development and use of information systems can be divided into two basic categories: the organisational aspect, in which information technology is used to achieve the goals of the organisation, and the technological aspect, in which, especially for developers of the system and those involved in its formation, the information system is a goal in itself. This paper looks to connect these two approaches in a single risk model, based on the one hand on the measurability of an organisation’s goals, and on the other on the frameworks for software measures (project measures) used in software engineering.

The main aim of this paper is to present the concepts of the EU agricultural basic support mechanisms directions' changes accepted within 'Health Check' review and their evaluation in view of the EU agricultural markets stabilisation. The focus is on those aspects of medium-term review which in the authors' view are crucial to further EU agricultural development. It is concluded that the EU farming because of its specific character should still be supported and should not be fully subjected to market rules, while preserving its common character. The support reorientation from one market to single payments is assessed positively as a more efficient method of stabilising farm incomes. A step in the right direction is the strengthening the financing of rural areas via the modulation system, because the II Pillar plays an important modernisation and pro-development role and meets social expectations. In view of new challenges it is necessary to implement efficient methods of risk management, such as: the new insurance against natural disasters and animals' diseases insurance.

The derivative instruments are widely accepted tools in hedging against the market risks. However, they can be used for elimination of impacts of the non-market risks as well. Weather derivatives, like other Arrow-Debreu instruments (Jaimungal, 2004) provide specific payouts in the case of occurrence of the weather risk events (e.g. temperature and precipitations). Dissimilarity of such risks even in very close areas and inability to settle them directly by delivery of underlying, makes the effective application of such derivatives dependent both on of the analytical model and on availability of the relevant empirical data as well. This paper is focused on certain issues in application of option-based temperature derivatives.

The article examines insurance derivatives traded on capital markets, focusing on their structure and application mechanisms. The main function of these derivatives is to provide collateral funds in cases of natural disaster. Insurance derivatives don’t serve as an indemnification contract for financing a particular cedant’s losses, so substantial basis risk is a serious consideration. On the other hand, less moral hazard and the low cost of coverage play an important role. Enhancing risk diversification, derivatives make it possible to cover disaster risks previously considered non-insurable. That insurer and re-insurer financial results are stabilised by minimising the ruin probability in case of the rapid growth of loss-ratio is another advantage of insurance derivatives. Developing these instruments requires the insurance sector have an appropriate level of maturity and those participating not only be prepared financially and technologically but also possess the proper know-how.

The aim of this paper is to attempt to characterize the role of risk management among growing external risk factors. The authors believe that currently there are a number of factors posing a serious risk of destabilizing the global financial system. Under such conditions, proper identification and risk management in enterprises can be very important for their secure operation. The authors believe there may be situations where implementation of a risk management system might be beneficial even if it does not lead directly to increased business value. Within the risk management process, risk management methods should be carefully observed, with some requiring supplementation with stress tests.

The research has covered only the largest contractors as large and very large construction and assembly companies tend to act as general contractors and carry out the biggest investment projects which, by definition, involve the highest risk. The execution of such projects requires the identification of risks, which occur at all stages of the investment and construction process.

The article presents key problems concerning corporate governance in banks and the attempts by regulators and supervisors to overcome them. Then the significance of codes of good practice is discussed, showing the examples of general principles (recommended by Warsaw SEC) and those addressed to banking sector (recommended by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision). The main part of the paper is the analysis of compliance with corporate governance principles (and other norms of “soft law”) by Polish banks. Compliance with Good practice of companies quoted on Warsaw Stock Exchange is examined; in case of the public banks the analysis is based on their corporate governance statements, in case of other banks the analysis is based on the survey completed by them. Furthermore the compliance with BCBS corporate governance principles is analyzed (based on the survey). The analysis allows for selecting the areas of corporate governance needing enhancement.
