FRoSTA AG’s strategy is based on the fundamental considerations of value-based management. For our risk policy, this means that the company is ready to take entrepreneurial risks, provided that the business activities initiated and the resulting additional earnings opportunities result in an increase in the company’s value. Under the risk management system, entrepreneurial risks are to be weighed up by comparing opportunities and threats.
Increasing returns through the introduction of our new product line can be seen as a significant value driver for increasing the company’s value in the next five years.
FRoSTA AG’s risk policy is based on the basic position that the risk coverage potential available to the company – in particular equity – at least corresponds to the existing aggregate risk scope. An external rating of BBB+ is aimed for. The company itself will bear core entrepreneurial risks, in particular the risks from the market (e.g. fluctuations in demand).
The core risks also include risks from the development of new products. All risks not belonging to these core areas of activity of the company, the marginal risks such as currency, liability or property damage risks the company tends to transfer to third parties.
