Let’s Talk About Risk
Part One
First, use the provided MS Excel Spreadsheet to gather the requested information about the publicly-traded company you picked in your weekly discussions. At the bottom of the spreadsheet, use the tabs (e.g., Week 1, 2, etc.) to enter the information for each Analysis Memo assignment. You only need to answer Week 1 this week, but you should use the same spreadsheet as the weeks progress. For now, conduct your research and enter your data for Week 1. This will help inform your response to Part Two. Part Two In a memo to the Chief Executive Officer (i.e., your instructor), assume you are a financial analyst assigned to review the publicly-traded company you picked in Discussion 1. You must use the Memo Template provided. For this week, you will answer the following questions (located in your template): Consistent with the two areas of risk you uncovered from the 10K Report for your company and in your spreadsheet, please expand on these two areas and whether they impact maximizing shareholder wealth and responsible investing. Are these risk areas impacting the top or bottom line? Corporate governance is the system of rules, practices, and processes by which a company is directed and controlled. Corporate governance refers to how companies are governed and to what purpose. Drawing from the course material and your 10K Report, are there any corporate governance issues with your chosen company? Explain. CriteriaLevel 4Level 3
