Risk and risk management

Macintosh Retail Group attaches great importance to entrepreneurship. However, doing business means taking risks. In order to deal with risks responsibly, it is essential to recognise them, take decisions accordingly and subsequently manage them. Macintosh Retail Group has therefore set up its organisation so as to combine effective enterprising with efficiently managing risks. Risk management has become a top-of-mind issue and is embedded in the organisation and day-to-day operations. This approach fits in perfectly with Macintosh Retail Group’s profile as an industrial retailer in the fashion and living sectors which considers its organisational structure, information, state-of-the-art systems and tight control of business processes to be key factors in achieving a healthy return on capital employed.
