| Abstract: | The author considers the issue of business continuity planning and asks whether it can cope with the emerging risks of a new century and whether it fits with the move to an enterprise risk approach. She assesses all the many risks involved from outsourcing to reputation risk and from the loss of intellectual assets to the loss of information systems. Her conclusion is that more concentration on a enterprise risk model is required. |
