Stress testing has come a long way since the first edition, thinking has changed dramatically, and so the second edition of Stress Testing: Approaches, Methods and Applications has added chapters that address these refinements in thinking and deals with new topics such as pre-position net revenue. The authoritative guide and reference tool for stress testing, this book is essential for risk managers, regulators and consultants who want a clearer understanding of the methods, tools and uses of stress testing in different risk areas. Described as an industry in itself, stress testing constitutes an extensive element of financial institutions risk management and capital-adequacy assessments.

The aim of this book is to help CROs, CFOs or those working in the treasury space to figure out which approach will be most appropriate. Offering insights and guidelines that expound the various approaches and highlights those most appropriate with regard to the guidance.
