Supply Chain Risk and Contingent Business Interruption 

Can something outside of your company’s control wreak havoc on your ability to satisfy your customers? As lean manufacturing is more common than not in the current environment and revenues are up across the board, there is a high risk of a breakdown in any part of your supply chain effecting revenue. We will discuss some ways to begin analyzing your companies supply chain and questions you can ask. How does Contingent Business Interruption fit into the discussion and what are some things to consider?

Theresa is responsible for FM Global’s new business development in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington D.C. FM Global is a property insurance company that operates under the belief that the majority of losses are preventable. As a mutual company we look to partner with clients that want more than just risk transfer. FM Global helps our clients become more resilient businesses by understanding their individual business needs, identifying vulnerabilities in their operations, and working together to reduce the risk of loss while providing the risk transfer the client needs.

 

Theresa has held engineering, underwriting, account management, and new business positions within FM Global and AFM (FM Global’s middle market provider) since 2004.

Chris Long

Chris is responsible for providing Business Risk Consulting (BRC) support to FM Global’s Washington D.C. and Philadelphia offices. BRC services support client risk management efforts in a variety of ways, primarily helping clients improve the resilience of their business by identifying key processes that drive profitability, quantifying related exposures, and identifying strategies to mitigate the impact from a potential disruption. 

Chris joined FM Global in January of 2017. Prior to joining FM Global, Chris was a Finance Strategy and Operations Consultant at Deloitte Consulting, specializing in business process improvement and financial systems modernization. Prior to Deloitte, Chris served as an Assurance Associate for PwC, performing financial statement audit services for clients in a range of industries.

As a member of the Business Risk Consulting Group, Chris is primarily responsible for conducting Business Impact Analyses, working in partnership with FM Global clients, to fully identify and quantify the customer’s financial exposures as they relate to property and business interruption loss potential.  The analyses Chris performs often result in the identification of significant exposures that were previously unknown or not fully understood by the customer, which potentially has a material impact to risk management decisions. 

Chris holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Accounting and Marketing from the University of Virginia’s McIntire School of Commerce
