Dieses Buch bietet einen neuen Ansatz für die Anwendung der Value at Risk-Methode (VaR) beim Aktiv-Passiv-Management. Das Aktiv-Passiv-Management beschäftigt sich mit der Gewährleistung der laufzeitkongruenten Deckung von Aktiv- und Passivpositionen und ist daher unverzichtbar für Transaktionen von Finanzinstitutionen. Der Autor erläutert hier das Risikomanagement von Finanzinstitutionen im Aktiv-Passiv-Bereich, und zwar insbesondere für Versicherungsunternehmen, offene Investmentfonds, Pensionskassen, Hedge Funds usw.

Dieses Buch bietet einen neuen Ansatz für die Anwendung der Value at Risk-Methode (VaR) beim Aktiv-Passiv-Management. Das Aktiv-Passiv-Management beschäftigt sich mit der Gewährleistung der laufzeitkongruenten Deckung von Aktiv- und Passivpositionen und ist daher unverzichtbar für Transaktionen von Finanzinstitutionen. Der Autor erläutert hier das Risikomanagement von Finanzinstitutionen im Aktiv-Passiv-Bereich, und zwar insbesondere für Versicherungsunternehmen, offene Investmentfonds, Pensionskassen, Hedge Funds usw. Nach einer detaillierten Einführung in VaR, konzentriert er sich vorrangig auf die Anwendung dieser Methode auf das Aktiv-Passiv-Management und das Portfolio Management. Die Begleit-CD enthält Software und Beispiele aus dem Buch, z.B. zur Varianz/Covarianz Matrix und zu Monte Carlo Simulationen sowie Beispiele zur Optimierung des Aktiv-Management, zu Differenzpositionen in der Aktiv- und Passivsteuerung und zu VaR-Schätzungen.
