什么是市场风险和市场风险管理?这个问题看起来很简单,好象不成为问题。不过,窃以为在讨论市场风险评估和管理这个大命题前,搞清楚相关的定义可以避免混乱。
根据国际证监会组织技术委员会在其报告《RISK MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL GUIDANCE for securities firms and their supervisors》中关于市场风险的定义,“Market risk inherent in any investment is the risk that the investment will not be as profitable as the investor expected because of fluctuations in the market. Market risk involves the risk that prices or rates will adversely change due to economic forces. Such risks include adverse effects of movements in equity and interest rate markets, currency exchange rates, and commodity prices. Market risk can also include the risks associated with the cost of borrowing securities, dividend risk, and correlation risk |
