Corporate Governance and Risk Management
The charity and commercial sectors offer different notions concerning risk management in the corporate arena. Currently, the charity sector is facing various difficulties including a reduction in the funding amount and the need to adopt the use of the ever-changing technology. Besides, the communication means is dynamic hence creating emptiness in service provision. However, it embraces new ideas and innovation that prepare the corporate field for the future.

In this case, the primary objective of a commercial sector is to make a profit out of the premiums paid by the insured. However, the third sector aims at restoring the financial position of the investor without having to pay any amount of premium. The needs of the societal members are the priority of the charity organization (Tao and Hutchinson, 2013).
The third or charity sector aims at identifying the needs of the people without any form of discrimination.

The organizations' objectives ensure a maximum productive capacity among different groups including the landless and disabled.
