Synopsis

· A risk plan – professional and sophisticated
· A must read for all banking officers and operating managers
· Covers the full range that managers need

Banking and financial services are some of the fastest-growing industries in the U.S. and worldwide. As growth is spurred on by a huge demand for new and improved services, bankers face the daunting and difficult challenges of reducing risks and uncertainty at a time of unprecedented innovation and prosperity. Managing Banking Risks fills the gap in banking literature by providing a professional and sophisticated "risk" plan--for bank directors, executives, and managers at every operational level. This new work covers the full range of banking risks operation managers and executives need to understand.

The book begins by defining and describing banking risk and how it must be viewed in the total banking context and structure. This book examines such issues as volatility, expected and unexpected loss, the role of risk capital, rate of return and the required reward for risk (the cost of capital). The six types of primary banking risks are identified and explored in turn from solvency and liquidity risk to credit risk, interest rate risk, price risks, and operating risk.
