Risk management in turbulent times
(ONLINE)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The Subprime Crisis has shown that the sophisticated risk management models used by banks and insurance companies had serious flaws. Some people even suggest that these models are completely useless. Others claim that the crisis was just an unpredictable accident that was largely amplified by the lack of expertise and even naivety of many investors. This book takes the middle view. It shows that these models have been designed for 'tranquil times', when financial markets behave smoothly and efficiently.
