1998 Wharton Survey of Financial Risk Management by US Non-Financial Firms

This is the third in a series of surveys on financial risk management practice and derivatives use by non-financial corporations in the United States undertaken by the Wharton School. This 1998 survey, written in partnership again with CIBC World Markets, extends the previous two surveys by asking new questions about certain aspects of derivatives use and risk management practice. This report compares responses across the various surveys and notes changes in responses over time. A tabulation of the responses to all questions is included in the appendix.
