Retail credit risk management

In: Palgrave Macmillan studies in banking and financial institutions

Abstract

This book introduces the fundamentals of retail credit risk management, provides a broad and applied investigation of the related modeling theory and methods, and explores the interconnections of risk management with other firm operations and industry regulation. The focus on retail (private individuals and small-medium enterprises) and the constant reference to the implications of the financial crisis for credit risk management, make the book distinctive. Furthermore, the involvement of academics, regulators and professionals from major global banks and consulting firms provides a global focus on the right balance between theory and applications. This book is aimed at MBA/Executive students who are planning to move into a career in professional credit risk management, and for professional risk managers looking for quantitative and updated methods of measurement and management in the area of retail credit risk.
