Topic:

Funding Liquidity Risk: From Measurement to Management

Synopsis:

The lessons from the recent financial crisis prove that liquidity risk management is of paramount importance. Regulators have paid great attention to funding liquidity risk because a shortfall at a single significant institution can lead to system-wide effects. In contrast to risk based capital for other forms of risks such as market and credit risk, the cushion for liquidity risk is not created through additional capital. The speaker will discuss liquidity risk measurements and analysis techniques with a newly proposed Value at Risk type of measure for liquidity risk called Cash Liquidity at Risk. The presentation will also cover optimal portfolio and execution models for hedging liquidity risk and liquidity risk pricing and cost allocation.
