Advanced ERM Session 2: Risk measures and Measuring, managing and mitigating market, credit and operational risk
This presentation is based on a part of an academic course on Advanced Enterprise Risk Management (Advanced ERM) titled ‘Risk measures and Measuring, managing and mitigating market, credit and operational risk’ and covers topics such as: mathematical underpins, market risk, credit risk, operational risk and managing market, credit and operational risk. It also includes appendices covering: VaR coherence and VaR vs TVaR, GARCH models, Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE), principal components analysis (PCA) and hazard rates and fitting operational risk loss distributions
