Every company is exposed to financial risk, but some are more exposed than others. This book will help you understand and control the financial risk for your institution.

Developing the concepts of risk management discussed in the first volume in this set, Mastering Risk Volume 2: Applications examines the latest methods for modelling, measuring and managing market, credit and operational risks.
