How big a buffer?

The average cost of your risks is the wrong number to budget — a risk either happens or it doesn't, and a bad year is several landing at once. Give each one a chance and a cost range, and a Monte CarloEach run rolls every risk: it happens or it doesn't by its probability, and if it does, its cost is drawn from your low / likely / high range. Ten thousand runs build the full distribution of total exposure. builds the spread of total exposure — so you can size the reserve that covers you most of the time, not just on average.
