Bank Valuation & Value-Based Management provides bankers, bank regulators, auditors, and risk managers with foundational concepts and practical tools for effectively managing a bank. An expert in asset and liability management, European financial markets, and banking theory, Jean Dermine provides rigorous foundations to discuss asset and liability management at a global level, with an integrated focus on an institution’s banking book. He covers bank valuation, fund transfer pricing, deposit and loan pricing, risk management, and performance measurement, and addresses two high-profile issues for banks worldwide: portfolio credit risk and liquidity risk. This thorough and innovative guide presents insightful coverage on the hazards of measuring portfolio credit risk, the impact of liquidity risk on fund transfer pricing, and the practice of performance measurement in the banking industry. Numerous real-world examples from the U.S. subprime crisis help illustrate the nature and dynamics of these issues. - Publisher.
