Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to develop a conceptual framework for improving the effectiveness of risk management in supply networks following a critical literature review. Methodology: A critical review of 91 scholarly journal articles published between 2000 and 2018 supports the development of an integrated conceptual framework. Findings: The findings emphasize that supply chain integration (SCI) can have both positive and negative impact on effectiveness of risk management in supply network. It is possible to have a positive effect when SCI can be used to develop competencies in joint risk planning within organization and with wider supply network members, and in turn to develop collaborative risk management capabilities. Supply network characteristics can influence whether and to what extent will SCI have a positive or negative impact on risk management effectiveness. Research implications: The conceptual framework can be used to empirically assess role of SCI for effective risk management. Dynamic evaluation of effectiveness of risk management and potential redesign of the supply network by considering other contingent factors are some future research avenues. Practical implications: There is need for developing specific competencies in risk planning within organizations and joint risk planning with supply network members, which in turn can help develop collaborative risk management capabilities to improve effectiveness of risk management in supply networks. Network characteristics will impact whether and to what extent will SCI result in the effectiveness of risk management. Originality value: Moving beyond recent (systematic) reviews on supply chain risk management, this study develops a novel conceptual framework interlinking supply chain integration and effectiveness of risk management, while considering network characteristics.

Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of the paper is to develop a conceptual framework for improving the effectiveness of risk management in supply networks following a critical literature review. Methodology: A critical review of 91 scholarly journal articles published between 2000 and 2018 supports the development of an integrated conceptual framework. Findings: The findings emphasize that supply chain integration (SCI) can have both positive and negative impact on effectiveness of risk management in supply network. It is possible to have a positive effect when SCI can be used to develop competencies in joint risk planning within organization and with wider supply network members, and in turn to develop collaborative risk management capabilities. Supply network characteristics can influence whether and to what extent will SCI have a positive or negative impact on risk management effectiveness. Research implications: The conceptual framework can be used to empirically assess role of SCI for effective risk management. Dynamic evaluation of effectiveness of risk management and potential redesign of the supply network by considering other contingent factors are some future research avenues. Practical implications: There is need for developing specific competencies in risk planning within organizations and joint risk planning with supply network members, which in turn can help develop collaborative risk management capabilities to improve effectiveness of risk management in supply networks. Network characteristics will impact whether and to what extent will SCI result in the effectiveness of risk management. Originality value: Moving beyond recent (systematic) reviews on supply chain risk management, this study develops a novel conceptual framework interlinking supply chain integration and effectiveness of risk management, while considering network characteristics.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
