Risk Management — defined
From the Florida Statutes
Risk management is the identification, investigation, analysis, and evaluation of risks and the selection of the most advantageous method of correcting, reducing or eliminating identifiable risks.
The laws and rules of the Board and the regulatory agency under which the Board operates include Chapters 456 and 460, F.S., and rule Title 64B2, F.A.C.
Practical takeaway: at least 1 hour of Risk Management is required every biennium — FCPA seminars cover this hour automatically.
