Risk Is an Asset: Turning Commodity Price Uncertainty into a Strategic Advantage

Risk is a fact of life. We encounter it everyday, whether we think about it or not. From driving a car to the decisions we make with our money, we are constantly negotiating the range of possibilities from good to bad outcomes. The gap between a “good” outcome and a “bad” outcome is where we find risk. While many typically consider risk a liability, authors and partners at Risked Revenue Energy Associates, Wayne Penello and Andrew Furman have developed a revolutionary approach to hedging called Process Risk Management that transforms commodity price risk into a corporate strategic advantage.

Risk Is An Asset

Risk Is an Asset: Turning Commodity Price Uncertainty into a Strategic Advantage is the latest work from Wayne Penello and Andrew Furman. The book details the patented risk management approach that has set their firm—Risked Revenue Energy Associates—apart from competitors. Their process, known as Process Risk Management (PRM), uses objective, market-based volatility observations to provide businesses with estimates of budgetary risk measured as a cost for consumers and revenues for producers. By measuring risk in budgetary terms, PRM helps each firm to maintain focus on its own success, keeps risk within acceptable limits and avoids the trap of trying to outguess the market.
