The article presents a modeling of the potential impact of commercial insurance and reserving on the value of a company's assets using the Houston method. The purpose of the method is to select the most effective risk management method. At the same time, the main choice of risk management method in relation to property risks is often the choice of a successful "proportion" between risk transfer in the form of classical commercial insurance and risk retention in the form of creating an optimal reserve amount. As a result of the analysis, we concluded that choosing insurance as a risk management method would bring more benefits to companies that have a return on operating assets close to a high return on the risk fund. At the same time, based on the found range of an acceptable insurance rate, in order to increase the effectiveness of the risk management system at the level of economic entities, it is possible to recommend combining two risk management tools in different proportions depending on the return on the risk fund assets on the market and the return on the operating assets of the company itself in the relevant period.
