Trade ReviewReview of previous edition: 'Provides all the tools required to build and maintain a comprehensive ERM framework, covering a range of qualitative and quantitative techniques and their uses in identifying, assessing, modelling and measuring risk.' Actuary Magazine
'In total, this book provides not only a very comprehensive and accessible introduction to financial enterprise risk management, but also covers advanced topics such as Bayesian networks and current regulatory developments such as Basel III. It clearly demonstrates the importance of risk management for financial institutions and outlines detailed steps and procedures that can be taken to obtain a firm understanding of risk. The book discusses the specific advantages and limitations of current risk management tools and frameworks and provides rich guidance on how to implement ERM on a comprehensive level.' Matthias M. M.
