De Risk Factory is een veiligheidseducatiecentrum waar basisschoolleerlingen en groepen met een verhoogd veiligheidsrisico veiligheidsbewust worden gemaakt door realistische scenario’s aan den lijve te ondervinden. Het doel van de Risk Factory is om bezoekers kennis te geven van mogelijke veiligheidsrisico’s en de zelfredzaamheid van deze bezoekers te vergroten. Dit onderzoek is erop gericht om te kijken in hoeverre een bezoek aan de Risk Factory bijdraagt aan de mate van zelfredzaamheid van bezoekers. Uit het onderzoek naar de effectiviteit van de Risk Factory blijkt dat een bezoek aan de Risk Factory leidt tot een hoog veiligheidsbewustzijn en een grotere intentie tot zelfredzaamheid onder kinderen uit groep 7 en 8 van de basisschool. De Risk Factory levert een belangrijke bijdrage aan het voorbereiden van kinderen op mogelijke onveilige situaties in de omgeving. Ondanks de positieve resultaten verkregen in dit onderzoek, is het nog wel van belang om na te gaan in hoeverre het ‘aan den lijve ondervinden’ van realistische scenario’s in de Risk Factory doorslaggevend is in het vergroten van de zelfredzaamheid. Het vergelijken van het effect van een bezoek aan de Risk Factory met het effect van ‘standaard’ voorlichtingsbijeenkomsten verdient daarom aanbeveling.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to find determinants about risk resilience and develop a new risk resilience approach for (agricultural) enterprises. This approach creates the ability to respond resiliently to major environmental challenges and changes in the short term and adjust the management of the organization, and to learn and transform to adapt to the new environment in the long term while creating multiple value creation. Design/methodology: The authors present a new risk resilience approach for multiple value creation of (agricultural) enterprises, which consists of a main process starting with strategy design, followed by an environmental analysis, stakeholder collaboration, implement ESG goals, defining risk expose & response options, and report, learn & evaluate. In each step the organizational perspective, as well as the value chain/area perspective is considered and aligned. The authors have used focus groups and analysed literature from and outside the field of finance and accounting, to design this new approach. Findings: Researchers propose a new risk resilience approach for (agricultural) enterprises, based on a narrative about transforming to multiple value creation, founded determinants of risk resilience, competitive advantage and agricultural resilience. Originality and value: This study contributes by conceptualizing risk resilience for (agricultural) enterprises, by looking through a lens of multiple value creation in a dynamic context and based on insights from different fields, actual ESG knowledge, and determinants for risk resilience, competitive advantage and agricultural resilience.

Risk assessment plays an important role in forensic mental health care. The way the conclusions of those risk assessments are communicated varies considerably across instruments. In an effort to make them more comparable, Hanson, R. K., Bourgon, G., McGrath, R., Kroner, D. D., Amora, D. A., Thomas, S. S., & Tavarez, L. P. [2017. A five-level risk and needs system: Maximizing assessment results in corrections through the development of a common language. The Council of State Governments Justice Center. https:// csgjusticecenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/A-Five-Level-Risk-and-Needs-system_Report.pdf] developed the Five-Level Risk and Needs System, placing the conclusions of different instruments along five theoretically meaningful levels. The current study explores a Five-Level Risk and Needs system for violent recidivism to which the numerical codings of the HCR-20 Version 2 and its successor, the HCR-20V3 are calibrated, using a combined sample from six previous studies for the HCR-20 Version 2 (n = 411 males with a violent index offence) and a pilot sample for the HCR-20V3 (n = 66 males with a violent index offence). Baselines for the five levels were defined by a combination of theoretical (e.g. expert meetings) and empirical (e.g. literature review) considerations. The calibration of the HCR-20 Version 2 was able to detect four levels, from a combined level I/II to an adjusted level V. The provisional calibration of the HCR-20V3 showed a substantial overlap with the HCR-20 Version 2, with each level boundary having a 2-point difference. Implications for practice and future research are discussed.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between sustainable performance and risk management, whereby sustainability (innovation), interdisciplinarity and leadership give new insights into the traditional perspectives on performance and risk management in the field of accounting and finance.

Purpose: The purpose of this research is to develop a “risk resilience model” for agricultural SMEs, that prepares farmers to the effects of major environmental challenges like climate change and weather shocks. Methodology: Action research is the methodology used. It was based on a template for qualitative research. Involved in the inquiry, action and reflection phase are: four Dutch SME farmers, strategic risk management experts, agricultural experts, and bachelor students. Findings: As an outcome of this study, a “risk resilience model” has been developed. It supports farmers/agribusiness firms to reach their orientation to a longer timeframe. Systemically seen, it provides a holistic view that enables farmers/entrepreneurs, and stakeholders to operationalize their ambitions from a responsible and sustainable business, including environmental, social, governance elements in interaction with the system they are part of. Originality and value: This study contributes by proposing a “risk resilience model” for SME farmers. Furthermore, the study conceptualizes risk resilience for farmers, by looking through a lens of multiple value creation in a dynamic context and based on insights from different fields, actual ESG knowledge, and determinants for risk resilience, competitive advantage and agricultural resilience.

There is an urgency and need to develop an innovative strategic approach for organizations to develop a sustainable organization for the future, in which they are able to respond resiliently to major environmental challenges and changes in the short term and adjust the management of the organization. On the same time, in this strategic approach learning and transforming accordingly in the long term is involved as well. This approach will give organizations the opportunity to operationalize their boards’ and stakeholders’ ambitions to build a responsible business, with focus on governance elements, as well as interaction with social and environmental factors, risk, and strategy from a holistic view. In education, students could work with this approach in future projects for real companies.

Within recent years, Financial Credit Risk Assessment (FCRA) has become an increasingly important issue within the financial industry. Therefore, the search for features that can predict the credit risk of an organization has increased. Using multiple statistical techniques, a variance of features has been proposed. Applying a structured literature review, 258 papers have been selected. From the selected papers, 835 features have been identified. The features have been analyzed with respect to the type of feature, the information sources needed and the type of organization that applies the features. Based on the results of the analysis, the features have been plotted in the FCRA Model. The results show that most features focus on hard information from a transactional source, based on official information with a high latency. In this paper, we readdress and -present our earlier work [1]. We extended the previous research with more detailed descriptions of the related literature, findings, and results, which provides a grounded basis from which further research on FCRA can be conducted.
