Abstract:
Recent trends in risk-based decision making are reviewed in relation to novel
developments in comparative risk analysis, strategic risk analysis, weight of
evidence frameworks, and participative decision making. Delivery of these
innovations must take account of organisational capabilities in risk management
and the institutional culture that implements decision on risk. We stress the
importance of managing risk knowledge within organisations, and emphasise the
use of core criteria for effective risk-based decisions by reference to decision
process, implementation and the security of strategic added value.
