Risk Management in a Logistic Enterprise

This article deals with the conceptual approach to the management of enterprises which create conditions for rationalisation and improvement of the business activities, not only in logistic enterprises. In addition to marketing, logistics, quality management and information, many companies are increasingly implementing the concept of risk management. The importance of risk management lies in its ability to influence the creative process resulting in detecting the risks and a purposeful reduction of the probability of crises. The first part of the article shows the structure of the companies whose business activities are focused on the area of logistics.
