“Managing Risk - Then and Now” - Presented by Dr. Laura C. Ricaldi
Oops! How am I going to afford this car accident? Will my family be okay if I were to pass away tomorrow? Managing risks has been an important practice throughout time. A main tool to manage risks is insurance. Using insurance to manage risk dates back to the ancient world. The insurance industry has evolved over time to protect businesses and individuals from risks. This presentation will explore the historical and modern applications of insurance and managing risks.
