Risk Control

Steven I. Davis

Chapter 9 in Excellence in Banking, 1985, pp 103-116 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Banks are in the business of managing risk. Traditionally this has taken the form of counterpart or credit risk, and the virility symbol of a bank has been its track record on loan quality. More recently, interest sensitivity, foreign exchange and liquidity risk have assumed greater prominence as banks – consciously or unconsciously – take major positions in these risk areas to improve profitability. Most recently, the adequacy of funding has become a very live issue for wholesale banks.
