Continued deflationary trends in many markets around the world are creating
greater pressure for risk prevention in order that margins can be maintained.
Customers and consumers are increasingly value driven. In this challenging
world, there is a growing recognition that creative pricing strategies combined
with effective supply chain management provide opportunities for significant risk
capital cost reduction and yet increased profits.
This paper presents evidence and a new model to support this viewpoint and
suggests an approach to supply chain alignment that can enable cost reduction
opportunities to be identified and higher profits to be achieved through
collaborative strategies.
For a good risk management the bank uses, among other figures, RORAC,
RAROC and RARORAC to minimize the risk that each credit-borrower brings
along. In the financing sector, therefore, they created the credit-ranking system.
Now the next question would be, why not implement that credit-ranking in
logistics to minimize risks in order to create a certain risk capital as security.
Especially in the airfreight segment, where there is a lot of environmental risk
involved, there has to be created a new way to prevent from high unexpected
losses.
The question that has to be answered
