Читать книгу Non-financial Risk Management in the Financial Industry - Группа авторов - Страница 9

Risks are inherent to every business model, so that a zero-risk tolerance approach is in fact counter-intuitive. Historically, financial institutions have focused their attention on financial risks, including credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk and funding risks, aggregating the remainder under a category most often labelled as operational risk. Recently, non-financial risks have evolved as an independent category for risk management, allowing for a more tailored approach to management of individual non-financial risks. Chapter 2 provides a general definition of non-financial risk, delineates non-financial risk from financial risk, and provides definitions for categories and types of non-financial risk for financial institutions.
