Heh! bizarro question #316

My eng/swedish dictionary suggests it would be Riskera företagsledning, if it's in relation to Silvan Lady's 'Risk Management'.

risk - riskera
management - ledning, direktion, företagsledning (company management)

No doubt a native speaker will give you a more precise answer.

*giggles*

Literally translated it would be that but if you translate it back it means Risk The Management. :0)

Actually... I don't know. :0P How's that for a good answer. I think it would translate into riskhantering at least according to SWERMA The Swedish Risk Management Association, but it would help if I had some context. :0)

Riskhantering literally translated back would mean risk handling, but I still think it's the closest interpretation. It's one of those words that don't really have a Swedish translation.

I hope that helps. Let me know if you need more. :0)

Does that mean that the English term Risk Management is used in Swedish too? :) I'm just wondering what to write on my Swedish resume, since I've studied Finance and Risk Management :P

I agree with Jayhawk that to get it in a larger context would help to give you the right translation.

You can take the words word for word and that you have been given from the other comments.

I've studied Finance and Risk Management and was just wondering how it translates to Swedish (if it indeed needs to be translated!) :) If the term 'Risk Management' is widely used in Swedish then I guess I'll just go with that.

Thank you :)
