The field of risk management has undergone a dramatic change in the last 30 years and the speed of change is accelerating. Credit risk, market risk, asset and liability management and performance measurement have historically been thought of as separate disciplines, but recent developments in financial theory and computer science now allow these views of risk to be analyzed on a fully integrated basis. The course presents the fundamentals of corporate financial risk management and approaches the topic of risk from both academic and senior practitioner perspectives. The objective is a realistic and conceptually motivated overview of risk management for major global companies. The strategic approach to risk management requires an understanding of insurance and alternative risk financing, as well as financial, insurance and commodity derivatives.
The course is designed for all students interested in risk management and its application in finance, insurance, accounting, strategic management and economics. It provides students with the knowledge and skills appropriate to the practice of risk management in preparation for a possible career that touches on the broad area of risk management.
