If risk management is about decision making, are current risk management solutions irrelevant?
Now that the updated COSO and ISO risk management standards emphasize a connection to enterprise objectives and decision making, does this mean ERM and GRC solutions focused on risk registers and regulatory compliance are missing the true value of risk management?Will current risk management solutions evolve to integrate more decision support functionality or will standalone prescriptive analytics and other technology solutions take a more prominent role in enabling risk-informed…

A question related to classification of instruments between trading and banking book.
We have an interesting question from one of our members. "We usually perform OTC FX transactions with clients backed-to-back on the market (with Banks). Now we are going to perform a FX swap (i.e. Spot + forward) JPY/EUR for the Bank account for 1 week at the longest. The purpose is to get EUR place @ CB for LCR compliance purpose (no trading purposes). Bank's Management think that this should be considered as a trading position and therefore be classified within the Bank's trading book.…

Plunging oil prices: curse or blessing in disguise?
The recent sudden crash of oil prices has had a major impact on the world economy, leading to many troubled faces in the international arena. The Russians fear the effects of yet another powerful hit on their economy, Venezuela seems to be considering default and the Americans are weary of the consequences for its young and emerging shale oil industry. And then you have the Middle East, where the smallest match is enough to ignite the largest fire. But are these worries really justified or…

Claudius L. Todor - introducing myself.
Hello everybody.
I want to introduce myself and my products. You will find that these products can be usefull, if you read my hype-free 3 blogs, and my Profile Information - these products are short encounters at very competitive prices.
Briefly about myself at www.beyond.com/todorc and www.linkedin.com/in/claudiustodor. I am a mathematics graduate at McGill. I have also been a tutor at McGill for long time. My experience is parallel to SAS.
Recently I started my own consultancy - www.beyond.com/todorc
My ambition is to recense data support, and reduce dimensions of data.
I am intersted in discussing business opportunities, consulatncy assignement, exchanging knowledge and potential partnerships.
Data Risk explained in 3 blogs under my name are:
1.Metric Stream for Data in my Workshops.
2.How can data appear in the Project.
Through file transfer on email. These files are in ASCII. They are used by WordPad. They are registred as private, public or hybrid (with pictures). Through visualization one may see parts of data. Data comes in, volume, variety and velocity. My workshops may introduce you in Storing and Querying Big Data in Hadoop Distributed File Systems.
3.Soviet research in Sleep for Creative Problem Solving
Use of subconscious mind and how to use dreams for being astray with overwhelming data.
Using night for insight.
Easy data insight at www.beyond.com/todorc
My ateliers (workshops) are about the application of probabilitiy theory in brand new calculation re-education.
Also, improving measures of dimension from quality time and cost, to other dimensions.
These workshops concentrate on a calculator reintroduced as a new mean of approximation and data therapy.
I saw many similar data, on different supports, yet you must have a clue where your data is.
SAS SQL and Oracle reduce dimensions. (other also).
In my workshops we concentrate in data highlights, getting data ready for Business Intelligence.
Doing nothing may not be an option, but doing something good at a good time, is what the explanation is about.
Please relate to: todorf@videotron.ca for me.

David,
I'm new to this Community also. No point in not breaking the ice with another new member. My view of the Risk Management realm is that it is very broad and very deep. And, each one of us can define our own space in those two dimensions. Of course, those dimensions may be changed as we find the path we want to follow.
Personally, I prefer to comprehend the forest before I get lost in the trees. And, I never want to lose sight of that big picture. I've found that many folks who are already far down in the depths lose their ability to communicate with real people at the top who are managing the big picture.
As for additional studies, I'm not the person to collaborate with on that topic. I'm a firm believer in getting out there and doing it. And, if that means thinking outside of the box conventional wisdom, so much the better.
If you would like to continue this discussion, just let me know.

http://cyberintegrity.wordpress.com/ is my blog for those that are non technical but have an interest in cyber.
Greetings,
I am currently at the US Department of Commerce. I am a graduate of the University of Chicago's Committee on International Relations, having earned my MA there. I am interested in developing political risk analysis skills to further my career. I am interested in what skills sets are necessary to break into the political risk field, and what course of study I should pursue, if I could pursue another degree. I hope to work in political risk for the oil and gas industry. Specifically, I will work for an oil and gas company(ies) seeking to enter the new market in Israel, and the East Mediterranean.

Hello to my new-found colleagues. My name is Tom O'Connor, and I am the CEO and Principal Consultant for Salt Marsh Solutions, Inc. of Georgia in the US. My career spans many years of IT and management consulting. My approach to risk management was forged while I helped US and international clients prepare for Y2K - a circumstance when nothing was permitted to interrupt progress toward an immovable deadline.
My unique Protect-Biz process has served multi-national as well as very small companies. I offer this service in a workshop format and also in a do-it-yourself format on the Internet. I believe I can help bring the power of risk management to entrepreneurs and executives who may be intimidated by the more complex end of the risk management approach spectrum. This process has been designed for people who have other things to do besides risk management. Additionally, Protect-Biz leads to independence and self-sufficiency rather than ongoing dependence upon additional products and services to maintain the risk management perspective in one's management toolkit.
I look forward to participating in this forum.
Hello Marcus,
I would like to stay in touch with you. Your opinion would be of value to me.
I have just started publishing in stages my papers on subjects that are close to your heart. In 2008 a letter was written by an actuarial analyst on the letterhead of one of the world's top consultancies advocating that people should look at my work. She wrote that it is academically sound and can resolve a number of financial crises.
So here it now is. It took long to write mostly because I had to close a huge credibility gap in order to get attention from the World Bank and others.

Synopsis:
MANAGING COMPLEX SYSTEMS
There is a well known method used by engineers, doctors, and social scientists when they are confronted with a complex system that is not working well, or looks sick:
“First, check whether everything is being done by the book. If not, then everything that is not so accounts for a whole list of symptoms that have been bothering everyone. So go to the source of the problems and resolve many. Everything simplifies.”
So in this series of papers we will be looking at Adam Smith’s book, often referred to as ‘The Wealth of Nations’. In particular we will look at his ‘pricing principle’, and how it is so often obstructed by the structures of debt, taxation, and interventions. We will see exactly how this behaviour disrupts interest rates, wealth, and spending patterns, making everything many times more complex than necessary.
And we will look at the ‘book of engineering control systems’ when looking at management of the currency and the business cycle.
Too much complexity is in itself a risk that can make a system fragile and unsafe.
By going by the book, and redesigning the wayward elements listed below accordingly, the paper shows how we make practical and ‘profitable and/or beneficial –to-all-concerned’, design changes that can resolve dozens, or even scores of problems that are all sourced from a handful of design and management errors.
I might add that I put a strong emphasis on the words 'practical' and 'profitable', which as a businessman and retired financial adviser I know a great deal about.

Hello Medrick,
I am possibly one of the leading experts in the world on Housing Finance in terms of sustainability and interest rate risk.
I have published a few times in this field over the years and some of my ideas have been adopted.
Housing Finance is one thing that adds significantly to the fragility of banks and economies. And it mis-steers funds and wealth in several ways.
I would like your opinion of my latest publication here:

And feel free to consult your peers at work and anywhere else in this matter.
Good luck in your career.

Hi Richelle,
As we all know, political risk increases as the fragility of economies defies the best efforts of the politicians and central banks. So this may be of interest to you:
