Banking risks (12/07/2007)
(...) The foundation of such risk measures is in terms of potential losses. The capital charge is a quantitative value. Under regulatory treatment, it follows regulatory rules applying to all players. (...)

Liquidity risk (12/07/2007)
(...) The liquidity of the market relates to liquidity crunches because of lack of volume. Prices become highly volatile, sometimes embedding high discounts from par, when counterparties are unwilling to trade. Funding risk materializes as a much higher cost of funds, although the cause lies more with the market than the specific bank. (...)

Banking regulations (12/07/2007)
(...) Deregulation increased competition between players unprepared by their past experiences, thereby resulting in increasing risks for the system. Reregulation aimed at setting up a regulatory framework reconciling risk control and fair competition. Regulations limit the scope of operations of the various types of financial institutions, thereby interfering directly with free competition. (...)

Implications of capital requirements (12/07/2007)
(...) The theoretical reason for holding capital is that it should provide protection against unexpected losses. Without capital, banks will fail at the first dollar of loss not covered by provisions. It is possible to compare regulatory forfeits to historical default rates for a first assessment of the magnitude of the safety cushion against losses embedded in regulatory capital. (...)

Management practices (12/07/2007)
(...) The Accord Amendment for market risk (1996) and the New Basel Accord (2001) provide very significant enhancements of risk measures. The existing accord imposed capital charge against credit risk. The amendment provided a standardized approach for dealing with market risk, and offered the opportunity to use internal models, subject to validation by the supervisory bodies, allowing banks to use their own models for assessing the market risk capital. (...)

Cooke ratio and credit risk (12/07/2007)

Banks financial statements (12/06/2007)
(...) Under such standards, net income ignores any change of ‘mark-to-market’ value, except for securities traded in the market or considered as short-term holdings. International accounting standards progress towards ‘fair value’ accounting for banking, and notably for transactions hedging risk. Fair value is similar to mark-to-market1, except that it extends to non-tradable assets such as loans. (...)

Rationale risk based practices (12/05/2007)
(...) The recent period has seen the emergence of a number of models and of ‘risk management tools’ for quantifying and monitoring risks. Such tools enhance considerably the views on risks and provide the ability to control them. This article essentially presents the risk management ‘toolbox’, focusing on the underlying concepts and models, plus their practical implementation. (...)

Contemporary Global Economy (12/01/2007)
(...) But various aspects of international leadership need not correlate, and historically have not always done so. Moreover, there is no reason to expect that they will necessarily do so in the future. International economic leadership, as it is understood here, does not require military predominance, and does not require broad diplomatic leadership outside of the economic sphere. (...)

International economic leadership (12/01/2007)
(...) A country without sufficient capabilities, it is true, will lack the economic wherewithal to lead effectively. It can try, but it is unlikely to succeed. Britain during the periods of reconstruction following both of the twentieth century’s world wars, for example, would have liked to recreate its late-nineteenth-century leadership role, but did not have the financial wherewithal to do so.

Social Construction and the Logic of Money (12/01/2007)
(...) A prior task, though, is to define that which is ultimately being explained by these arguments, international economic leadership. International economic and monetary leadership is used here with a very specific meaning. As employed here, it means the reliable provision by a country of infrastructural public goods to the international economy. (...)

International financial predominance (12/01/2007)
(...) Preponderance in investment gives a country both the physical and reputational resources to be able to fulfill the functions of leadership as previously discussed. For example, the income from abroad generated through such a high level of international investment can serve to offset the demands on a country’s balance of payments caused by the maintenance of a relatively open market and a highly valued currency. The denomination of a majority of the investment in the international economy in a country’s currency will help to give that country the resources and liquidity to underwrite central banks in crises without critical strain on the currency.
