Description
Measuring operational risk requires both knowledge of quantitative tools and comprehension of financial activities in a very broad sense. Presenting a nonparametric approach to modeling operational risk data, this book offers a practical perspective that combines statistical analysis and management orientations. It covers the statistical theory prerequisites and summarizes important contributions made in the past decade. The authors explain how to implement the new density estimation methods for analyzing the loss distribution in operational risk for banks and insurance companies. They also include SAS and R routines to implement all of the procedures discussed in the text.
