Risk management<br />
Market capitalization – <strong>Renault</strong> placed seventh worldwide<br />
in automobile manufacturing<br />
<strong>Renault</strong> makes it a constant priority to control all the risks<br />
its operations and plans entail, including financial,<br />
operational and legal risks.<br />
Risk management is an integral part of the Group's<br />
operational management, while its partners Nissan and<br />
Volvo take responsibility for this in their own businesses.<br />
It is organized on the basis of dual responsibilities.<br />
• At corporate level, the Risk Control unit within the Audit<br />
Department defines appropriate methods on the basis<br />
of a structured overview, identifying and mapping<br />
risks to allow effective monitoring and prevention.<br />
• The entities in charge of major business processes<br />
implement the guidelines defined at corporate level<br />
and identify their know-how and experts needed<br />
to assess and rank risks as well as offer solutions<br />
for their limitation.<br />
Illustrating this approach, special care is taken for risk<br />
relating to:<br />
• internationalization, in particular in connection with<br />
financial risks within each country and foreign<br />
exchange risk from trade with emerging-market<br />
countries;<br />
• product and product quality, particularly as regards<br />
user safety and customers' understanding of complex<br />
functions;<br />
• suppliers, which means monitoring their financial<br />
positions as well as their compliance with environmental<br />
and HR standards;<br />
• the environment, allowing for the impact of both plant<br />
operation and vehicle design;<br />
• information systems as regards reliability and security.<br />
