What's your Total Cost of Risk (TCOR)?

If you don't know, you need a better connection to your company's risk managers,
who measure risk by what can be insured and what it costs to do so. While the
measurement of operational risks is still a bit of a puzzle for CSOs, risk
managers have used TCOR for ages.
