Risk measures [31]

Bullet points include: Suppose we have two ‘pay-offs’ (business opportunities, financial outcomes, ...), C and D. With C, receive M if event X occurs (X has probability p, p > 0). With D, receive 2M if event X occurs. Which do we prefer? D (if M > 0), C (if M < 0). To value a risky bond or claim we include a term like: Probability of default (‘PD’) x Loss Given Default (‘LGD’)
