Riassunto

This the COLORED version of the book. Although quantitative methods are used most often in risk assessment, their usefulness wanes in the realm of tail risk management. To effectively mitigate extreme risks and preserve a firm’s survivability, the focus must be on building a resilient business model.Over the last ten years, large and well-respected financial institutions have experienced failure in the face of tail risks, revealing the inadequate protection provided by current practice. More than just capital management, tail risk management takes a qualitative approach that involves business strategy.In Tail Risk Management, author Pascal M. vander Straeten, a twenty-five-year financial services veteran and founder of consulting firm Value4Risk, pulls best practices from across industries to provide a new risk management framework. These principles will guide a business toward necessary changes in modern management practices, regulations, and cultures that can be applied on an enterprise-wide basis, addressing extreme risks at any stage in their development.In the face of a systemic crisis, a resilient business model will provide strong lines of defense against failure. Unquantifiable uncertainties will always exist, and traditional risk management approaches are not adequate. Using this extensive guide, learn what needs to change and why—and how to implement a potentially business-saving strategy.
