Model Risk: Identification, Measurement and Management

Edited By Daniel Rösch and Harald Scheule

Over the past decade the financial service industry has spent tremendous resources on building models to measure financial risks. Generally, these models’ predictions were used without acknowledging that reality may or may not reflect the assumptions made and thus the predictions. The book aims to provide solutions on how to include model risk into existing risk measurement frameworks. It also aims to provide solutions on how to build models of higher accuracy and thus lower model risk.
