"Risk Management and Regulation after the Crisis. Credit Markets Outlook and Financial Conglomerates"
June, 4th 2010
NYU Florence Campus - Villa La Pietra
9:30-13:00
The fade-out of the crisis opens up a number of problems for responsible risk management and appropriate regulation. The “originate to distribute” business model seems to represent a well accepted reference point, which both risk managers and regulators need to cope with. Both of them realize that more sophisticated and attentive systems of “all-inclusive” risk calculation, possibly endowed with early signalling, would benefit shareholders and clients. The implementation of Solvency II and the call for Basle III are surrounded by a lively debate on the features of such “all-inclusive” risk appreciation. Correlation and stability are at the core of this debate. Correlation is not perceived any more as simple correlation of asset prices for market risk, of countries’ and obligors’ correlation for credit risk. Correlation includes nowadays much more sources and factors. It is spurred by the adoption of a common business model for the banking sector and by the progressive increase of financial content in insurance products. It is fostered by the existence of big financial players, which operate cross-sector and cross-countries: financial conglomerates.
The workshop overviews the issues mentioned above. The plenary speakers will describe the “Current conditions and outlook of Global Credit Markets after the crisis” (E. Altman) and some risk measurement advances for huge risk actors (T. Schuermann). The panel session will concentrate on the latter. It will discuss both banking and banking-insurance conglomerates, their advantages in terms of diversification and uniform methodologies, as well as their possible disadvantages for stability.
