Covering the basic processes and techniques of financial risk management, this book discusses the kinds of risk, the means of measuring it, and the means of managing it. Specific attention is given to market risk, credit risk, and risk in portfolios. Gleason (a risk management consultant) also advances a theory of Global Risk Management (GRM), admitting that it remains in the early stages of its full articulation. Annotation c.
