Credit is the expectation of a sum of money within some limited time, and credit risk is the chance that expectation will not be met. Credit risk is the oldest risk in the financial markets, yet it has not traditionally received the same expert's attention as that of its more recent counterpart, market risk. In recent years however, market professionals, banks, and other institutions have created new instruments, like derivatives, by which to sell or trade credit risk. This commodification of credit risk has created the credit markets which have grown exponentially, thus creating the need for new information and a stron analytic foundation. Here Jack Caouette provides an all-encompassing discussion of credit in today's new credit market.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Against a backdrop of radical industry evolution, the authors of Managing Credit Risk: The Next Great Financial Challenge provide a concise and practical overview of these dramatic market and technical developments in a book which is destined to become a standard reference in the field." -Thomas C. Wilson, Partner, McKinsey & Company, Inc. "Managing Credit Risk is an outstanding intellectual achievement. The authors have provided investors a comprehensive view of the state of credit analysis at the end of the millennium." -Martin S. Fridson, Financial Analysts Journal. "This book provides a comprehensive review of credit risk management that should be compulsory reading for not only those who are responsible for such risk but also for financial analysts and investors. An important addition to a significant but neglected subject." -B.J. Ranson, Senior Vice-President, Portfolio Management, Bank of Montreal.
