According to the theory, certain behaviour depends on the ability and motivation. Ability refers to behavioural controls, while motivation brings up the intended results. Theory of planned behaviour can also be applied to describe various business risk management and regulations challenges. Through the analysis of the past and current status of the business, the theory can offer solid information on the specific times in future. In risk management, almost certain predictions can be made on future occurrences using the information on the past challenges and the current capacity of the business (Szylar, 2013). Challenges posed by regulatory authorities can also be predicted, and where possible, be controlled throu gh the prediction of planned behaviour theory. Although there can be cases where new regulations can be legislated without the involvement of the business organization and thus unexpected, most
