This book was released on 2020 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Applied CQRM Book Series showcases how the advanced ana-lytics covered in the Certified in Quantitative Risk Management (CQRM) certification program can be applied to real-life business problems. In Volume VI, we show how to model and risk simulate complex projects to obtain schedule and cost risks.Pragmatic applications are emphasized in order to demystify the many elements inherent in risk analysis. A black box will remain a black box if no one can understand the concepts despite its power and applicability. It is only when the black box methods become transparent, so that researchers can understand, apply, and convince others of their results, value-add, and applicability, that the ap-proaches will receive widespread attention. This transparency is achieved through step-by-step applications of quantitative modeling as well as through presenting multiple cases and discussing real-life applications. This book is targeted at those individuals who have completed the CQRM certification program but can also be used by anyone familiar with basic quantitative research methods--there is some-thing for everyone. It is also applicable for use as a second-year MBA/MS-level or introductory PhD textbook. The examples in the book assume some prior knowledge of the subject matter.

Download or read book Credit Engineering for Bankers written by Morton Glantz and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2010-11-25 with total page 557 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More efficient credit portfolio engineering can increase the decision-making power of bankers and boost the market value of their banks. By implementing robust risk management procedures, bankers can develop comprehensive views of obligors by integrating fundamental and market data into a portfolio framework that treats all instruments similarly. Banks that can implement strategies for uncovering credit risk investments with the highest return per unit of risk can confidently build their businesses.

As readers acquire new abilities to calculate risks and evaluate portfolios, they learn how credit risk strategies and policies can affect and be affected by credit ratings and global exposure tracking systems. The result is a book that facilitates the discipline of market-oriented portfolio management in the face of unending changes in the financial industry. - Concentrates on the practical implementation of credit engineering strategies and tools - Demonstrates how bankers can use portfolio analytics to increase their insights about different groups of obligors - Investigates ways to improve a portfolio's return on risk while minimizing probability of insolvency
Download or read book Project Valuation Using Real Options written by Prasad Kodukula and published by J. Ross Publishing. This book was released on 2006-07-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business leaders are frequently faced with investment decisions on new and ongoing projects. The challenge lies in deciding what projects to choose, expand, contract, defer, or abandon, and which method of valuation to use is the key tool in the process. This title presents a step-by-step, practical approach to real options valuation to make it easily understandable by practitioners as well as senior management. This systematic approach to project valuation helps you minimize upfront investment risks, exercise flexibility in decision making, and maximize the returns. Whereas the traditional decision tools such as discounted cash flow/net present value (DCF/NPV) analysis assume a “fixed” path ahead, real options analysis offers more flexible strategies. Considered one of the greatest innovations of modern finance, the real options approach is based on Nobel-prize winning work by three MIT economists, Fischer Black, Robert Merton, and Myron Scholes.
