Strategic Risks – Long-term risks related to market competition, technological changes, or shifts in consumer behavior.

Operational Risks – Risks that affect daily operations, such as supply chain disruptions, system failures, or human errors.

Financial Risks – Potential financial losses due to market fluctuations, credit defaults, or cash flow issues.

Compliance & Regulatory Risks – Risks related to legal and regulatory requirements that could lead to penalties or reputational damage.

Reputational Risks – Issues that impact brand perception, such as negative publicity, customer dissatisfaction, or unethical practices.
