Abstract
The present thesis, based on bibliographic references, articles and online sources, introduce
a very important practice of predicting, assessing and dealing with risks, which plays an
important role both in the viability of a business or an organization, and specifically in their
financial and operational data. This practice is called risk management and in this paper
reference analyze the definition, concept, types and functions of both risk management and
the term itself of risk in general, including the meaning of these two terms in a business or
an organization. Risk as a concept carries two meanings, one negative and one positive.
Based on this fact, it is understood that with the term risk there is the uncertainty of the
result both in the present and in the future. It is very important to carry out an extensive and
continuous control in order to identify the risk, so that either immediate prevention or
immediate treatment is done, since these risks cannot be prevented, due to the inconsistency
and the inability of the organization to create a risk management department. The main
types of risk are market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, operational risks and legal risk. In
the second part, this reference attaches the case study of Thomas Cook Corporation
including the analysis and reference to the historical review of the company, which serve
for about 180 years in the tourism industry. This is followed by the presentation of the
company's case, persons, events, situations and then the formulation and study of the risks
that were dealt with in the context of risk management. Finally, are reported the results,
conclusions of the study and the new strategic development of the company.
