Abstract: THE ROLE OF FUND ACCOUNTANTS IN RISK ASSESSMENT AND MANAGEMENT
The primary objectives of this study are to: (1) analyze the critical role of fund accountants in risk assessment and management; (2) evaluate the impact of accurate risk reporting on investment decisions; and (3) explore the tools and techniques used by fund accountants to manage financial risks. A survey research design was selected for its effectiveness in collecting data from a broad spectrum of professionals. Using Taro Yamane's formula, a sample size of 300 fund accountants and risk managers from Lagos, Nigeria, was derived to ensure statistical significance. The study includes a case study of a major asset management firm in Lagos to provide practical insights. A reliability coefficient score of 0.85 indicates the reliability of the survey instrument. Findings reveal that fund accountants play a pivotal role in identifying, assessing, and managing financial risks, thereby enhancing the stability and performance of investment portfolios. Recommendations include providing continuous training on advanced risk management techniques, adopting integrated risk management software, and fostering closer collaboration between fund accountants and risk managers to improve overall risk management practices.
