The purpose of this research is to determine how the risk management framework of Value at Risk (VaR) can be applied to the Alberta hog production industry and if it will provide a useful and effective tool for managers to identify, measure, and manage their downside cash flow risk. The research is then extended and evaluates potential risk management strategies, their potential impacts on the operation at hand's cash flow, and how the ranking of the risk management strategies using VaR compares to the rankings of more traditional risk decision criteria.

520 $a The purpose of this research is to determine how the risk management framework of Value at Risk (VaR) can be applied to the Alberta hog production industry and if it will provide a useful and effective tool for managers to identify, measure, and manage their downside cash flow risk. The research is then extended and evaluates potential risk management strategies, their potential impacts on the operation at hand's cash flow, and how the ranking of the risk management strategies using VaR compares to the rankings of more traditional risk decision criteria.
520 $a The research is accomplished using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The validity of the VaR model results are tested and found adequate, and indicate that the cash flows of Alberta hog producers have a large downside risk potential. Potential downside risk was reduced for the operation at hand when risk management strategies were included into the model, and the ranking of risk management strategies by VaR were found to be quite consistent to the rankings produced by the alternative risk decision criteria.
