The third edition of 'Analyzing Banking Risk' provides a
comprehensive overview of topics dealing with the assessment, analysis,
and management of financial risks in banking.
The publication emphasizes risk-management principles and stresses
that key players in the corporate governance process are accountable
for managing the different dimensions of financial risk.
This third edition remains faithful to the objectives of the
original publication. A significant new addition is the inclusion of
chapters on the management of the treasury function. Advances made by
the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision are reflected in the
chapters on capital adequacy, transparency, and banking
supervision.
This publication should be of interest to a wide body of users of
bank financial data. The target audience includes persons responsible
for the analysis of banks and for the senior management or
organizations directing their efforts.
