Risk Management - Jakarta Vs Flood
3 likes886 views
Floods are a major problem in Jakarta, Indonesia due to several factors. Over 40% of Jakarta is below sea level, exacerbating flooding from heavy rains and poor drainage systems. Climate change has increased flooding in recent decades. The 2014 floods caused over $1 billion in damages. Solutions require cooperation across government, businesses, and communities to improve flood prevention infrastructure, regulate environmental pollution, and increase public awareness.

The document discusses three key lessons from the recent financial crisis for risk managers.
1) Don't be afraid to call the market as sometimes it is more dangerous not to do so. Historical data choices imply a market call and averages can be misleading.
2) There is no true hedging, only swapping one kind of risk for another such as basis risk.
3) For risk managers to understand the portfolio, they must simplify and summarize the overall risks in 2-5 major bets rather than focus on individual positions.Kw 1

Risk management is often seen as boring, but it provides an opportunity to systematically identify everything that could go wrong with a project, including both obvious and less obvious risks outside of one's control. Once identified, risks should be assessed, assigned to the appropriate parties to address, monitored over time, and escalated to senior management when risk scores are high. The process allows problems to be recognized and addressed early.Chapter 12 - Operational risk management

Risk management is the process of identifying and mitigating risks that may have a positive or negative impact on a project. It includes risk management planning, identification, analysis, response planning, and monitoring and control. Analyzing risks qualitatively and quantitatively helps prioritize them so appropriate responses can be developed, such as avoiding, transferring, mitigating, or accepting risks. Monitoring risks ensures new risks are identified and risk responses remain effective over the project lifecycle. The benefits of effective risk management include more efficient resource use, continuous improvement, fewer failures, and enhanced communication and accountability.Risk Management

The city of Jakarta, Indonesia is prone to severe annual flooding that causes significant damage. The urban poor are often not included in flood damage assessments, so their situation does not improve. This study estimates the direct and indirect yearly flood damages experienced by the urban poor in Jakarta. Results show the urban poor experience $16.5 million in direct damages annually and $14.5 million in total damages when considering production losses, health impacts, and recovery costs. Incorporating the urban poor into future flood assessments is recommended to help address their vulnerability and improve resilience.Adapting cities to climate variability and change bob

Urban flooding has become a recurring issue in many Nigerian cities, including Awka and Onitsha in Anambra State. The study examines the causes and impacts of flooding in these two cities, with the goal of recommending measures to address the problem. Primary and secondary data show that flooding causes major losses and disruption, but the cities have received limited government support to address environmental issues. Key factors contributing to flooding include inadequate drainage infrastructure, poor drainage design and construction, uncontrolled development that blocks drainage, and improper solid waste management. To reduce vulnerability, the study recommends developing and implementing comprehensive urban flooding control programs that involve the public.More Related Content

Floods are the most frequent and costly natural disasters in Argentina, accounting for 58% of economic losses from natural catastrophes. While some regions like Santa Fe are consistently impacted, flash floods can occur nearly anywhere due to intense, short-term rainfall. Most Argentinians remain at risk, with under 5% of flood losses insured despite the regularity of damaging floods.Urban flood management in Nigeria

Vulnerability to floods is influenced by location, population density, infrastructure, and land use planning. Building flood resilience requires prevention through measures like flood barriers and drainage systems. It also requires early warning systems, disaster risk reduction, and community preparedness. Success stories demonstrate how measures like raised housing, pumps, and green infrastructure can effectively manage flood risks.Floods Disaster Management

UNI Concept Proposal UN Green Helmets Ministry of Peace Foundational SecurityLHelferty

This concept proposal from UnityNet International introduces a油paradigm shift in global peace and security, moving beyond traditional military defense.
It advocates for the creation of油"Green Helmets" or "Living Helmets,"油which are Regenerative Peacekeeping Forces (#RPFs) focused on油regenerative development, climate resilience, and foundational human security.
These forces would deploy with resources like green infrastructure and water systems to assist communities, rather than weapons, aiming to prevent conflict by addressing root causes such as resource scarcity and climate instability.
The proposal suggests establishing a油Ministry of Peace and Foundational Security油within member states to coordinate these efforts and reallocate national budgets to prioritize regenerative, civilian peacekeeping alongside military defense.
