Risk Measurement

MNK Risk Consulting > Risk Measurement

With significantly increased regulatory focus on capital adequacy and short- and long-term solvency for banks, insurance companies and investment firms with own trading books, it is crucial to rethink capital planning and risk measurement.  Satisfying regulatory expectations related to capital adequacy requires a move from point-in-time measurement to forward looking risk measurement.

We have acquired international experience and expertise

on the provision of the following core services
