Which of the following are technological risks to an organisation? Select TWO

  1. cyber-security issue
  2. supply chain security issue
  3. supplier management issue
  4. network failure
  5. quality failure

Answer(s): A,D

Explanation:

Cyber security and network failure are two types of security risks. See. P. 154. There aren't a lot of questions on chapter 3.4 as it's a very short chapter and a lot of the material is repeated in earlier chapters. A brief look over this chapter is all you'll need before the exam.



Maple Tree Limited is a Canadian company who has recently signed a new contract with a supplier who is based in Chin

  1. Maple Tree Limited will be buying a raw material with a reputation for severe price fluctuations.
    Which of the following would help mitigate the risk that this poses? Select TWO options
  2. quote in the supplier's currency
  3. quote in the buyer's currency
  4. use a forward exchange contract
  5. fix the exchange rate at the current rate

Answer(s): C,D

Explanation:

The correct answers are 3 + 4. To mitigate the risk, you want to ensure price stability for the duration of the contract- you don't want the prices to keep going up and down. Therefore options 1 and 2 wouldn't help- the prices would still go up and down regardless of which currency was used for quotes. Using a forward contract, or fixing the exchange rate, however, would give price certainty,

and therefore mitigate the risk. See p.23 for more information on currency risks and how to overcome these
