Credit Portfolio Management - ECFS896
In this unit students are exposed to some of the key tools and techniques available for the assessment and management of credit risk in the context of portfolios of loans or other credit exposures. The unit follows on from the credit topics introduced in Financial Risk Management and aims to provide a more in depth understanding of portfolios of credit risk including characteristics such as correlation and concentration risk. Topics cover active credit portfolio management in banks; the regulatory environment; credit derivatives and structured credit (CDOs); and the rapidly developing area of counterparty credit risk.
