Spreadsheet
risk is the risk of financial, legal, operational and/or
reputational cost to an organization resulting from errors in
spreadsheets.
Millions of dollars have been lost and/or defrauded, people
have been fired, legal battles have erupted and public
images damaged because
of errors in spreadsheets.
The greatest strength of spreadsheets; their power and flexibility,
combined with self-taught employees and a lack of organizational
awareness is at the root of the problem.
Almost any employee can quickly develop a spreadsheet that saves time,
money and effort, but few will build a low-risk, robust, error-free
spreadsheet.
(Academic research has found spreadsheet error rates ranging
between 64% and 100%. Many of these errors were rated “very
significant”.)
