ISBN: 1-886938-71-7 IDB Bookstore | This volume presents an innovative analysis of risk management in financial institutions and resulted from a cooperation between the IDB and Grupo Santander. The book presents a comprehensive approach to risk management, as well as the structures necessary for the implementation of a financial risk management program in a financial intermediary. The publication places the concept of risk capital at the center of modern risk management in financial institutions that operate in volatile markets. It also puts forth guidelines to calculate risk capital in emerging markets with reduced liquidity, and includes procedures to guarantee that the financial entity will have the necessary capital available to offset risks and reduce its vulnerability. Originally published in Spanish, Financial Risk Management is already widely used throughout Latin America. But with its emphasis on emerging markets, the book is an invaluable resource for financial risk professionals as well as for all those interested in both the theory and practice of risk management. |
