Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire
At the end of the course, the student is familiar with the main principles of credit risk and frontier issues in risk management, such as high-frequency market risk measurement, behavioral risk, and systemic risk. Concerning credit risk, the student will be able to handle intensity based models for counterparty default and to compute valuation adjustments. As high-frequency risk is concerned, the student will be aware of the main features of the market at intra-day level, their measurement and management (intra-day duration, volatility, and correlation dynamics, seasonal patterns, high-frequency VaR and ES). Finally, the student will be introduced to the concept of systemic risk from two different perspectives: i) how micro prudential practices increase macro risk, ii) how markets sentiment co-evolves with systemic risk.
