ERisk ESSENTIALS --
What's New at ERisk.com, 19 October 2001 WEEKLY REVIEW http://email.eRisks.com/cgi-bin10/flo?y=eLp10BHCKe0CjE0OVQ0Ar This week’s economic, banking and P&C insurance news from an enterprise risk management perspective: anthrax fears loom over markets; mixed news on corporate earnings; US banks report third-quarter results; Fed governor speaks out on Basle responses; US insurance regulators scrutinise Lloyd’s solvency; White House releases proposals on terror cover. ANALYSIS http://email.eRisks.com/cgi-bin10/flo?y=eLp10BHCKe0CjE0B4V0AB The $1 trillion credit derivatives market has been through a testing time recently. The bankruptcies of Swissair and the UK's Railtrack – both companies with actively traded default swaps – have focused attention on the efficiency of the market. So far, things seem to be working fine. But concerns are growing about some of the issues surrounding coverage for convertible bonds. In this week's banking analysis, ERisk's Duncan Woods investigates. FEATURE http://email.eRisks.com/cgi-bin10/flo?y=eLp10BHCKe0CjE0Ogf0AV How to get credit systems up to scratch will be the big issue in banking in 2002, and the same problem is already occupying many energy risk practitioners. But why are some credit system projects successful, while others fail? And are software vendors the providers of a 'solution' or purveyors of hot air? In this exclusive ERisk feature, Karl Sees, principal at CreditRisk Advisers, sounds out banking and energy practitioners on the ingredients for a successful project. RESEARCH ARCHIVE http://email.eRisks.com/cgi-bin10/flo?y=eLp10BHCKe0CjE0Car0AP It's time to get serious about credit risk modelling, so we've added more links to recent papers to the Credit Risk section of our Research Archive.
