Advanced Risk Management: Risk Calculation Methods

Understand how a robust risk management construct should be created and how to employ advanced techniques in a successful manner.

Many practitioners lack a comprehensive framework, adequate tools, and an appropriate suite of limits and metrics to proactively manage the financial risks related to their business. Having experienced four tail events in the last 20 years, the phrase 'no one saw this coming' is no longer good enough. This paradigm is especially meaningful for companies that are exposed to material financial risk, both on the asset and liability side of their operations, such as financial institutions, trading companies, and other corporations buying and selling physical goods. It is time for these enterprises to elevate their risk management protocols. This course will help risk managers understand how a robust risk management construct should be created and how to employ advanced techniques in a successful manner.
