Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Building upon the work established in the first edition, this fully revised multi-author reference collection brings the reader up-to-date with a complete and cohesive examination on the latest techniques for credit risk assessment and management. Shimko collates and presents practical and timely information on how to use the newest modelling and measurement tools for managing credit risk with specially commissioned chapters, evaluation and comment from leading practitioners and academics actively involved within the industry. The authors utilise statistical evidence backed by astute commentary to provide a modern and relevant explanation on all the various elements of credit risk. The book is subdivided into five main reference sections - each with introductions to illustrate their significance and explain the main points to be discussed: risky bonds in the portfolio and market context; valuation of risky debt; default probabilities, recoveries and credit ratings; structured credit products; and practitioners' tools to managing credit risk.
