Risk Budgeting: Portfolio Problem Solving with Value-At-Risk

Institutionelle Anleger, Fonds- und Portfoliomanager müssen Risiken eingehen, wenn sie Spitzengewinne erzielen wollen. Die Frage ist nur wieviel Risiko. "Risk Budgeting: Portfolio Problem Solving with VaR" liefert die Antwort auf diese Frage. Beim Konzept des Risk Budgeting geht es um Risiko- und Kapitalallokation auf der Grundlage erwarteter Erträge und Risiken, mit dem Ziel, höhere Renditen zu erwirtschaften im Rahmen eines vordefinierten Gesamtrisikoniveaus. Mit Hilfe quantitativer Methoden zur Risikomessung, einschlie lich der Value at Risk-Methode lä t sich das Risiko ermitteln und bewerten. Value at Risk (VaR) ist ein Verfahren zur Risikobewertung, das Banken ursprünglich zur Messung und Begrenzung von Marktpreisrisiken eingesetzt haben. Heute wird die VaR-Methode auch verstärkt im Risikomanagement eingesetzt. Dieses Buch bietet eine fundierte Einführung in die VaR-Methode sowie in Verfahren zur Risikomessung bei Extremereignissen und Krisenszenarien (Stress Testing). Darüber hinaus erklärt es, wie man mit Hilfe des Risk Budgeting ein effizienteres Portfoliomanagement erreicht. "Risk Budgeting: Portfolio Problem Solving with VaR" ist das einzige Buch auf dem Markt, das Risk Budgeting und VaR - zwei brandaktuelle Themen im Portfoliomanagement - speziell für institutionelle Investment- und Portfolio-Manager aufbereitet. Eine unverzichtbare Lektüre.

Suitable for the DIY

If you like to roll up your sleeves and crunch the numbers, this is your book. If you like to sharpen your pencil and grind through portfolio theory algebra, this is your book as well. Excellent read.

Great VaR book, lacking in Risk Budgeting

Prof. Pearson has done an excellent job describing VaR and how downside risk fits into the portfolio selection process. His book is the only book on VaR that I am aware of to provide a rigorous treatment of methods for encorporating non-normality of returns into the VaR estimate (by means of the Cornish-Fisher approximation or other approaches), surpassing even Jorion's "Value-at-Risk" in this regard. The treatment of Risk Busdgeting starts with a reasonable definition, but then drops to short references throughout the book and a brief treatment at the end about including VaR measures in a risk budgeting portfolio management approach. I would also liked to have seen the code used to create the examples published with the book, even though this is not a book on implementation.

Hands on and rigorous

A very well written book on Risk Budgeting from a modern perspective. VAR methodologies, stress testing and working examples are very well written and a must for anyone wanting to either get into the risk measurement/ management field or an advanced practitioner in the field. I would highly recommend this book for someone wanting to get the both the theoritical and hands on practical approach to risk measurement of equity and fixed income portfolios.
