J is a manager in charge of a section in GDD's Buying department. J has eight staff who report to her. Including M, who has worked for GDD for seven months.

One afternoon, while J was absent on sick leave, M was asked to place an urgent order for plastic pellets that are vital for GDD's production process. The usual supplier could not supply the pellets on time to avoid a shortage and so M telephoned a new supplier and placed an order. When the supplier invoiced for the delivery, GDD's Accounts Payable Department rejected the invoice because the supplier did not have a valid account.

On investigation, it was revealed that M did not have the authority to place an order with a new supplier. Only J can authorise new accounts. M claimed that he had been unaware of the need to seek approval because he had never found it necessary to place an order with a new supplier before

MNB is a multinational IT company with headquarters in Asia and with operations in all continents.

MNB is attempting to expand its operations in Europe. This is seen as a major challenge as the European market is very well developed and highly competitive.

MNB develops and manufactures its own products. Parts and assemblies are sourced across Asia, America and Europe. These are sometimes purchased locally as a condition of a contract, but MNB aims to include as much of its own equipment as possible. Transfer prices between MNB's subsidiaries can be set in YEN, USD, EURO, GBP. Transfer prices are revised every month in line with production times as most goods are made on short order with sales cycles running at 3-4 months.

What types of risk are being presented here?
