Feel free to inquire for photos or more details. --- Proceedings of the Association for Investment Management and Research seminar held in Boston on 8-9 March 1999, gathering ten presentations on the design, implementation, and interpretation of risk management within the asset management industry. The contributions treat portfolio, firm, and security risk, with attention to value-at-risk methodology, the behaviour of correlations during periods of market stress, and the limits of quantitative measures when normal data patterns break down. The volume opens with a foreword situating risk management against modern portfolio theory and the customary emphasis on return, using the volatility of the S&P 500 Index to illustrate the disparity in attention given to risk. Contributors include Bluford H. Putnam, Richard M. Bookstaber, Robert M. McLaughlin, Andrew W. Lo, Desmond Mac Intyre, Charles W. Smithson, Jacques Longerstaey, Michelle McCarthy, Brian D. Singer, and Stephen Kealhofer. Issued in the AIMR conference proceedings series. Seller Inventory # OA-260803-shelf-17-015
