VALUE AT RISK

August 25 & 26/September 28 & 29

Can you ....

Give a precise definition of Value at Risk?
Describe how VaR is changing the way companies evaluate risk in their
businesses?
Discuss how these changing views of risk will impact the use of hedging
products?
Define the standardizing practice of Risk Mapping?
Illustrate a simple VaR model and accurately discuss the modeling process?
Evaluate the impact of correlation on the calculation of VaR?

An understanding of Value at Risk (VaR) is rapidly becoming an integral
business need. The (2 day) VaR seminar is designed to introduce participants
to this interrelationship of the many factors that make VaR a dynamic and
strategic tool. The program ends with a "hands-on" experience of making a
simple VaR calculation.

If interested, please register through the Development Center or call the
Ernie help line at ext. 3-0357.
