Book Synopsis New Directions for Understanding Systemic Risk by : National Research Council
Download or read book New Directions for Understanding Systemic Risk written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-01-17 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stability of the financial system and the potential for systemic events to alter its function have long been critical issues for central bankers and researchers. Recent events suggest that older models of systemic shocks might no longer capture all of the possible paths of such disturbances or account for the increasing complexity of the financial system. To help assess these concerns, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the NRC cosponsored a conference that brought together engineers, scientists, economists, and financial market experts to promote better understanding of systemic risk in a variety of fields. The book presents an examination of tools used in ecology and engineering to study systemic collapse in those areas; a review of current trends in economic research on systemic risk, the payments system, and the market of interbank funds; and for context, descriptions of how systemic risk in the financial system affects trading activities.
Book Synopsis A Collaborative Approach to Financing Supply Chain Investments by : Carolyn Somorowsky
Download or read book A Collaborative Approach to Financing Supply Chain Investments written by Carolyn Somorowsky and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-31 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Competitive advantage is not achieved by a single company, but rather by the entire supply chain, with a focus on improving the flow of information, finance and goods. Improving these flows requires strategic investments relevant to the supply chain that are often long-term, capital-intensive, relationship-specific, and therefore risky. The past financial or COVID-19 crisis has made banks more risk averse, making it more expensive for supply chain members to finance risky investments or even more difficult to raise funds from external financial institutions. Supply chain finance is a young discipline that focuses on improving financial flows through a collaborative approach. Since most strategic investments are made by suppliers facing financial constraints, there is a high likelihood that supply chain disruptions will occur because the financing party becomes insolvent, or the investments do not materialize. To encourage strategic investments and avoid supply chain disruptions, a model is developed in which supply chain members leverage their financial and operational capabilities to realize these investments and share costs, risks, and benefits according to their contribution. The proposed model is based on a structured coalition game with transferable utility that determines the supply chain members best able to finance the investments without compromising supply chain stability.
Book Synopsis New Directions in Management and Organization Theory by : Jeffrey A. Miles
Download or read book New Directions in Management and Organization Theory written by Jeffrey A. Miles and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of the best seventeen papers from the first Management Theory Conference held at the University of the Pacific in San Francisco, California, on September 27 and 28, 2013. The authors of these papers are some of the best management researchers in the world, including: Anette Mikes, Robert S. Kaplan, and Amy C. Edmondson (Harvard Business School); Sarah Harvey (University College London); Randall S. Peterson (London Business School); Jack A. Goncalo and Verena Krause (Cornell University); Karen A. Jehn (University of Melbourne); Yally Avrahampour (London School of Economics and Political Science); Tammy L. Madsen (Santa Clara University); and Sim B. Sitkin (Duke University). All of the papers in this book present the latest theoretical developments that were discussed at the first Management Theory Conference. The purpose of the conference was to help address the shortage of new management and organization theories. The mission of the conference was to facilitate, recognize, and reward the creation of new theories that advance our understanding of management and organizations. The conference was held to motivate management researchers to create new theories and to provide researchers with a supportive forum where those new theories could be presented, discussed, and published. Chapter Seventeen is the winner of the Wiley Outstanding New Management Theory Award. Authors Chris P. Long, Sim B. Sitkin, and Laura B. Cardinal present a theory to explain the drivers of managerial efforts to promote trust, fairness, and control. They theorize how superior-subordinate conflicts stimulate managers’ concerns about managerial legitimacy and subordinate dependability in performing tasks, and hypothesize how managers attempt to address these concerns using trustworthiness-promotion, fairness-promotion, and control activities. This book also contains written summaries of the two keynote addresses that were given at the conference by Roy Suddaby (editor of Academy of Management Review) and Jeffrey Pfeffer (Stanford University), which comprise Chapters Eighteen and Nineteen. Professors Suddaby and Pfeffer present a fascinating debate of the future and new directions of management and organization theories.
Book Synopsis Financial Risk Management in Banking by : Shahsuzan Zakaria
Download or read book Financial Risk Management in Banking written by Shahsuzan Zakaria and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-08 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As risk-taking is an essential part of the banking industry, banks must practise efficient risk management to ensure survival in uncertain financial climates. Banking operations are specifically affected by fluctuations in interest rates which cause financial imbalance; thus banks are now required to put in place an effective management structure that incorporates risk management efficiency measures that help mitigate the wide range of risks they face. In this book, the authors have developed a new modelling approach to determine banks’ financial risk management by offering detailed insights into the integrated approach of dollar-offset ratio and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), based on derivatives usage. It further analyses the efficiency measurement under stochastic DEA approaches, namely (i) Bootstrap DEA (BDEA), (ii) Sensitivity Analysis and (iii) Chance-Constrained DEA (CCDEA). As demonstrated in the modelling exercise, this integrated approach can be applied to other cases that require risk management efficiency measurement strategies. Additionally, this is the first book to comprehensively review the derivative markets of both the developed and developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region, by examining the differences of risk management efficiency of the banking institutions in these countries. Based on this measurement approach, strategies are provided for banks to improve their strategic risk management practices, as well as to reduce the impacts from external risks, such as changes in interest rates and exchange rates. Furthermore, this book will help banks to keep abreast of recent developments in the field of efficiency studies in management accounting, specifically in relation to hedge accounting, used by banks in the Asia-Pacific region.

This book was released on 2021-10-22 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper discusses the impact of the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the financial sector. It highlights the benefits these technologies bring in terms of financial deepening and efficiency, while raising concerns about its potential in widening the digital divide between advanced and developing economies. The paper advances the discussion on the impact of this technology by distilling and categorizing the unique risks that it could pose to the integrity and stability of the financial system, policy challenges, and potential regulatory approaches. The evolving nature of this technology and its application in finance means that the full extent of its strengths and weaknesses is yet to be fully understood. Given the risk of unexpected pitfalls, countries will need to strengthen prudential oversight.
Book Synopsis K-12 Education Finance by : Anthony Rolle

The six essays presented in this special edition of the Peabody Journal of Education base their work within the context of the four pillars and present new directions for future research. While some of the articles isolate a concept for closer scrutiny, others draw attention to more interactive aspects of the pillars in question. Each article leaves the reader with important information and insightful questions about both the usuage and efficacy of education finance policies.
Book Synopsis Six Sigma DMAIC and Markov Chain Monte Carlo Applications to Financial Risk Management by : Bubevski, Vojo
Download or read book Six Sigma DMAIC and Markov Chain Monte Carlo Applications to Financial Risk Management written by Bubevski, Vojo and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2024-04-05 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Financial institutions face a critical challenge in managing financial risks effectively under the stringent regulatory frameworks of Basel III and Solvency II. Traditional risk management approaches often need to provide the necessary tools to control risks in a dynamic and evolving market environment. A comprehensive methodology integrating advanced risk analysis concepts and structured frameworks is essential for institutions to achieve optimal risk management outcomes, leading to increased solvency risk, capital requirements, and value at risk (VAR). Six Sigma DMAIC and Markov Chain Monte Carlo Applications to Financial Risk Management is a groundbreaking book that presents a transformative approach to financial risk management. Inspired by Peter L. Bernstein's insight on risk control, this book introduces a unique methodology that combines the DMAIC framework with advanced risk analysis concepts. Financial institutions can enhance their risk management processes by applying these tools to internal models for Solvency II and Basel III, reduce solvency risk, and improve competitiveness.
