Risk Management and Mitigation
Smoothing Out the Curve

Jet fuel price volatility can wreak havoc in an airline's financial results if not managed systematically using the appropriate risk management tools. In fact, airline risk management executives are expected to develop and actively manage what has become the single-most important financial exposure an airline faces today. On the other hand, risk management tools in the wrong hands and without proper controls can increase the risks and have disastrous consequences for the company.
