<abstract displayLabel="Summary">This paper attempts to explain why large UK corporation undertake risk management in order to control the impact of fortuitous loss. Empirical results are based on a postal questionnaire survey of 127 risk and finance manager selected from a sample of the 350 largest UK companies. Although the results confirm a widespread agreement on the importance of risk management, particulary in connection with risks affecting third parties, there is no apparent  relationship between risk management objectives and the financial characteristics or operating environmental of the firm. The inability to explain inter-firm differences in risk management practice suggests that such differences are due to variations in non-financial characteristics such as organisational culture and managerial behaviour</abstract>
