Translation of "indice de risque anthropique " (French → English) :

A portfolio management practice, which aims to offset the significant risks linked to an investment in a well diversified portfolio of shares by taking a short position on a stock market index future, where the composition of the equity portfolio is very close to that of the stock market index and its return highly correlated to that of the stock market index and where the short position on the stock market index future allows an unquestionable reduction of the general market risk related to the equity portfolio and the specific risk ...[+++]is insignificant, such as a beta-hedging of a well-diversified equity portfolio where the specific risk is considered to be insignificant, should be considered as complying with the hedging criteria.

53. Notes that significant risks are associated with energy infrastructure, including operational risks (e.g. congestion and discontinuity of supply), natural risks (e.g. earthquakes and floods), environmental risks (e.g. pollution, and habitat and biodiversity loss) and anthropogenic/political risks (e.g. safety risks and terrorism); therefore calls for decisions on the development of smart grids to be implemented, as provided for in Directive 2008/114/EC on critical infrastructures; suggests that the Member States draw up a risk m ...[+++]ap as a tool for decision making and monitoring the results of smart grid implementation in order to improve the interconnectivity of grids;

9. Notes that significant risks are linked to energy infrastructure such as operational (e.g. congestions, continuity of supply), natural (e.g. earthquakes, floods), environmental (e.g. pollution, habitat and biodiversity loss) or anthropogenic/political (e.g. safety, terrorism); therefore calls for decisions on smart grids development to be implemented, as foreseen by EC Directive 2008/114 on critical infrastructures; suggests to the Member States to draw-up a mapping of risks as a tool for decision-making and monitoring the result ...[+++]s of smart grids implementation in order to improve interconnectivity of grids;

‘pollution’ means the direct or indirect introduction into the marine environment, as a result of human activity, of substances or energy, including human-induced marine underwater noise, which results or is likely to result in deleterious effects such as harm to living resources and marine ecosystems, including loss of biodiversity, hazards to human health, the hindering of marine activities, including fishing, tourism and recreation and other legitimate uses of the sea, impairment of the quality for use of sea water and reduction of amenities or, in general, impairment of the sustainable use of marine goods and services.

Emphasis will be placed on prediction of climate, ecological, earth and ocean systems changes, on tools and technologies for monitoring, prevention, mitigation and adaptation of environmental pressures and risks, including risks to health, and on tools and technologies for the sustainability of the natural and man-made environment.
