OPEN RISK MAKES NO GUARANTEE OF VALIDITY

The Open Risk Manual is an online wiki of Risk Management; that is, a voluntary association of individuals and groups working to develop a common resource of specialized human knowledge.

While the aim is to have all articles reviewed by people with the expertise required to provide you with complete, accurate or reliable information Open Risk cannot guarantee the validity of the information found here.

Open Risk aims to monitor and preserve the integrity of the Articles.

No formal peer review

At present the Open Risk Manual aims to facilitate informal rather than formal peer review:
