Applied Financial Risk Management

This course explains the modern techniques for managing risks in a financial institution. Financial risk is generally classified into 4 categories: Market, credit, liquidity, and operational. The market risk is due to movement in financial asset prices or volatilities. The credit risks are because counterparties are unwilling or unable to fulfil their contractual obligations. The liquidity risk arises when transactions cannot be conducted at prevailing market prices due to cash flow constraints. The operational risks arise from human or technical problems. This course will cover the techniques for measuring and managing different types of financial risks.
