Download or read book Bank Asset Liability Management Best Practice written by Polina Bardaeva and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As bankers incorporate more and more complicated and precise calculations and models, a solely mathematical approach will fail to confirm the viability of their business. This book explains how to combine ALM concepts with the emotional intelligence of managers in order to maintain the financial health of a bank, and quickly react to external environment challenges and banks’ microclimate changes. ALM embraces not only balance sheet targets setting, instruments and methodologies to achieve the targets, but also the correct and holistic understanding of processes that should be set up in a bank to prove its prudency and compliance with internal and external constraints, requirements and limitations and the ongoing continuity of its operations. Bank Asset Liability Management Best Practice delves into the philosophy of ALM, discusses the interrelation of processes inside the bank, and argues that every little change in one aspect of the bank processes has an impact on its other parts. The author discusses the changing role of ALM and its historical and current concepts, its strengths and weaknesses, and future threats and opportunities.

Download or read book Asset Liability Management for Financial Institutions written by Bob Swarup and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2012-05-24 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The asset liability management (ALM) of a financial institution requires informed decisions coupled with strategy in order to meet financial objectives. Combined with a range of risks and constraints, effective ALM requires the formulation, implementation, monitoring and revision of strategies on a daily basis. Asset liability management in the banking industry has come to the fore since the beginning of the Credit Crunch in mid 2007, with overexposed financial institutions collapsing or being propped up by governments and taxpayers ultimately footing the bill. The evidence suggests that the pain is not over with banks lacking commitment and confidence in terms of lending in Europe and the US. Without mending the balance sheet and formulating new strategies, few banks will be able to commit to new opportunities and become takers of qualified risk in the near future. Aimed primarily at risk managers/analysts within financial institutions, but also of significant interest to treasurers, pension fund managers, auditors, controllers, regulators, legal and compliance, Asset Liability Management for Financial Institutions helps build the knowledge base with a back-to-basics approach, in the context of the turmoil in the banking sector. This multi-author volume covers key areas such as fund transfer pricing product, problem-loan assumptions, understanding and applying funds transfer pricing, derivatives, measuring interest rate risk, stress testing and modeling of market risk.
