This book offers a complete model for the quantification of so-called operat ional risks. It offers a detailed discussion on the link between modeli ng approaches and management, which has been neglected in the literatur e, as well as the mathematical modeling of the loss distribution approa ch. With an emphasis on risk management and management fundamentals, th e text presents a complete simulation model along with tested examples that can be replicated using R software. The author provides a broad vi ew on managing risk using this mathematical model"-- Provided by pub lisher.
