Financial risk refers to the possibility of losing money in an investment or in a business venture. This risk can come in a variety of forms including operational risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. Both individuals and organizations can experience these kinds of risks. The practice of assessing and managing potential and current financial risks in order to reduce an organization's exposure to risk is known as financial risk management. It entails recognizing the risk, quantifying it, assessing all viable solutions, formulating a plan and then implementing the steps and financial tools required to mitigate its potential consequences. The primary strategies for financial risk management are risk reduction, risk retention, risk avoidance and risk transfer. This book explores all the important aspects of financial risk management in the present day scenario. It consists of contributions made by international experts. A number of latest researches have been included to keep the readers up-to-date with the global concepts in this area of study.

The stories in this book are from real encounters with real patients. Of course, because of HIPAA names have been changed and certain information has been withheld. These are actual experiences I have shared with some of the best folks I've worked with. To be in healthcare, you need to be caring, compassionate, and working for one person: the patient sitting in front of you. I take that role very seriously. With that being said, some of these stories may come across as shocking, funny, disappointing, or even vulgar; but my hope is that they give you something to connect to, laugh at, think about, and appreciate. I share these stories to provide a chance for you to look at the healing process in a light-hearted, positive way. Remember that all patients are humans with a story to tell. And in my case, they are much older and have experienced much more in life. It is with my deepest wishes that any human working for any other human will try to connect with them, make it a positive experience, and perhaps learn in the process. Start the new year with a laugh, and supporting a worthy cause!! There is enough negative information out there everyday, perhaps this short read will bring a smile to your face.
