The Risk Management of Projects Funded by European Funds. Procedural Approach
Keywords:
risk, project risk management, European funds, structural funds, Romania.Abstract
This study has as a starting point the theoretical, methodological and empirical evaluation of the research regarding the project risk management. The results of the evaluation were transposed on the specifics of the projects funded by European funds. The ultimate goal was to reveal a series of effective practices for the procedural approach of the project risk management financed by structural funds. The study presents the most important risks of the projects funded by the EU and points out that the most frequent and expensive risks occur during the implementation phase. Our research brings contributions on three levels: scientific (because it presents the state of knowledge in the field); methodological (because it offers its own methodology of procedural approach of risk management); practical (the study signals the most frequent and expensive risks and provides solutions for their treating).References
