Risk Management

The main document defining the goals, objectives and principles of RusHydro Group's risk management is the Internal Control and Risk Management Policy.

The main goal of the Policy is to determine the mandatory ICRMS principles and develop common approaches to the implementation of internal control and risk management processes in RusHydro Group.

A methodology based on the risk appetite of RusHydro Group has been prepared to develop the Internal Control and Risk Management Policy approved by the decision of the RusHydro Board of Directors.

The methodology makes it possible to determine the optimal balance between risks and opportunities when meeting operational and investment objectives to achieve the goals of RusHydro Group.

The activities of RusHydro Group are subject to uncertainty, which is associated with the possible impact of risks in the future. In order to reduce the negative impact of potential risk factors and to take advantage of favorable opportunities, RusHydro group has established a risk management system aimed at implementing the RusHydro Group Development Strategy for the period up to 2020 with a perspective up to 2025.
