To date, there has been little consideration of the many different ways in which accounting and risk intersect, despite organisations being more determined than ever to build resilience against potential risks. This comprehensive volume overcomes this gap by providing an overview of the field, drawing together current knowledge of risk in a wide range of different accounting contexts.

Key themes such as corporate governance, trust, uncertainty and climate change are covered by a global array of contributing scholars. These contributions are divided into four areas:



The broader aspects of risk and risk management
Risk in financial reporting
Risk in management accounting
Risk monitoring

The book is supported by a series of illustrative case studies which help to bring together theory and practice. With its wealth of examples and analyses, this volume provides essential reading for students, scholars and practitioners charged with understanding diverse facets of risk in the context of accounting in the business world.

Margaret Woods is Emeritus Professor of Accounting and Risk at Aston Business School, Aston University, UK. Founder of the European Risk Research Network, her extensive publications on risk particularly have attracted international media interest. Her book of case studies, Risk Management in Organizations, was published in 2011. Philip Linsley is Professor of Accounting and Risk at the York Management School, University of York, UK. His research interests are risk-related and include investigating risk disclosure, and risk and culture. He is particularly interested in applying the ideas of Mary Douglas to the accounting field.
