The Texas Blackout - A Disaster Foretold

Those in charge of Texas’s deregulated power sector were warned again and again that the electric grid was vulnerable.

More than 4.5 million customers in Texas were without power during the peak of outages in the state, as freezing temperatures hit parts of the country.

In November, when the officials who run Texas’s main electric grid took stock of whether the system could handle the coming winter, they felt confident. There would, even under “extreme conditions,” be plenty of power. But last week, an arctic blast mocked their assessment, freezing in about 40 percent of the grid’s power-generation capacity and throwing much of the state into the cold and dark. How could the state’s energy managers have gotten things so wrong?

Managing Operational Risk – What every professional needs to know

By Stanley Epstein

"Operational risk is probably one of the most misunderstood risks in the whole of the risk spectrum.

While risks such as “credit risk”, “liquidity risk”, “market risk” are easily understood by business and other professionals, “operational risk” is a poor relation when it comes to grasping what it really means.

The starting point, of course, is to define what we mean when we speak about operational risk.

My favourite definition is that formulated by the “Basel Committee on Banking Supervision” in its “Principles for the Sound Management of Operational Risk” (BIS - June 2011).

The definition reads;

“Operational risk is defined as the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people and systems or from external events.”
